## Summary

The Liverpool Bay SPA Project, initiated by the Defra Network eTendering Portal, seeks to collate and process digital survey data for five surveys focusing on the Common Scoter and Red-throated Diver. The project falls within the services industry category, specifically targeting data collection and collation services. The tender period has ended, with the contract set to commence on 13th January 2017 and concluding on 27th March 2017. This project was published on 22nd November 2016, and interested parties were advised to register on the Bravo e-tendering system to participate in the procurement process, which follows an open procurement method.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in marine survey services, data analysis, and environmental management. Companies with capabilities in handling detailed survey data, particularly those familiar with the effects of shipping on marine wildlife, would be well-positioned to compete for this contract. Moreover, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, enhancing the potential for business growth in sectors supporting ecological research and conservation efforts.
