The tender is currently at the award stage, with a contract value of £12,661 and set in the United Kingdom. The procurement is classified under an open procedure, with key dates including a tender period that ended on 5 May 2017 and a contract period running from 15 May 2017 to 28 February 2018. This initiative aims to conduct in-depth bat surveys for three pilot churches, instrumental in generating management plans to meet regulatory requirements. This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in ecological consultancy, environmental services, and social research. Companies with expertise in bat ecology or heritage conservation would be well-suited to compete, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community and social enterprises (VCSEs). Engaging in this project could enhance a business's profile and contribute to environmental sustainability, while working collaboratively within the community to address the challenges posed by bat populations in historic church settings. ## Notice During the development year (2017/18) of the HLF-funded 'Bats in Churches' project three churches have been chosen to pilot the project approach to producing management plans. An experienced contractor (or contractors) is required to conduct in-depth bat surveys and produce a management plan for each of these churches. These surveys must start in May and, following the practical work, the contractors will produce a detailed management plan which will provide information on how the bats will be managed during the delivery stage of this project (2018 onwards). Without this detailed information on how bats are using these three pilot churches or the management plans it will be impossible to apply for or progress with the stage two HLF application for the delivery phase of this project. The work carried out under this contract/s will also enable a full site registration application under the Bats in Churches Class Licence.
