## Summary

The procurement process titled "Assessment of the contribution of agri-environment schemes to natural capital" is conducted by the Defra Network eTendering Portal, located in London, England. This initiative falls under the environmental impact assessment services industry and is currently in the award stage, following its completion. The contract period spans from 16th July 2018 to 31st March 2019, with a total contract value of £69,880. Key dates include the tender period ending on 18th June 2018 and the publication date of the award on 25th July 2018. The procurement method used was an open procedure, suitable for all interested suppliers, particularly SMEs and voluntary and community sector enterprises.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in environmental services, particularly those engaged in research and environmental consultancy. Firms capable of undertaking evidence-based reviews related to land management and natural capital are likely to thrive in this competitive space. Additionally, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary organisations with relevant expertise may find this contract fitting, as they can contribute effectively to the necessary assessments and provide valuable insights into agri-environmental schemes.

## Notice

Undertake an evidence review to establish where causal links between land management interventions and changes across the natural capital logic chains can be evidenced: in the state of natural capital (quality, quantity, location), the provision of ecosystem services, or the change in benefits delivered. Build on the work done in Defra Project BD5005 to link interventions to options available through Environmental Stewardship (ES) and Countryside Stewardship (CS) schemes and establish whether these causal links can be quantified and valued.
