This open procurement process, initiated on 6 December 2017, will allow suppliers to submit their proposals until the deadline of 5 January 2018. The contract is expected to commence on 29 January 2018, with a duration until 31 August 2018, and the total value of the contract is set at £7,500. The location for service delivery is within the Yorkshire and the Humber region of the United Kingdom. This tender represents a significant opportunity for ecological surveyors and environmental consultants, particularly those with expertise in bat conservation and habitat analysis. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to apply, as the project demands specialised knowledge and innovative approaches to conservation strategies. The successful contractor will engage in both data collection and public awareness activities, providing an ideal platform for businesses to showcase their capabilities and make impactful contributions to biodiversity efforts. ## Notice The purpose of this brief is to seek the services of a suitably experienced ecological surveyor to; - undertake a desk-based study to collate existing information about bat distribution and activity levels and important habitat features in summer roosting and foraging areas to identify Priority Bat Areas within the Ryevitalise Landscape Partnership scheme area. - develop a detailed methodology to carry out a bat survey across the Bat Priority Areas within the scheme area in order to provide base line data for the project on distribution and activity levels for all bat species at summer habitats, ensuring that this uses robust and repeatable methods and protocols. - undertake bat surveys in the 2018 survey season following the agreed methodology. - In addition, surveyors will be required to record on site issues, provide suggestions for improved management for the benefit of bats, and raise awareness of bats with land managers where appropriate. The second purpose of the brief is for the appointed consultant to undertake a survey to confirm the distribution and status of the Alcathoe bat within the Ryevitalise Project area and to understand this species' ecology. This would include recommendations to inform practical conservation actions at key sites for this species (this work can of course be incorporated into the point above). We also require suggestions on further research that would assist the development of a conservation strategy. It is also expected that the appointed consultant will suggest how their methods and protocols could be adapted to make them suitable for citizen science, to be used in future monitoring during the delivery phase of the Ryevitalise scheme. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2b0f8727-6e2b-4c7c-be1a-212f39f84b16 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 6 Dec 2017 | | Submission deadline | 5 Jan 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 29 Jan 2018 - 31 Aug 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £7,500 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NORTH YORK MOORS NATIONAL PARK AUTHORITY | | Locality | HELMSLEY | | Post town | York | | Postcode | YO62 5BP | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE2 North Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE22 North Yorkshire | | Local authority | North Yorkshire | | Electoral ward | Helmsley & Sinnington | | Westminster constituency | Thirsk and Malton | | Delivery location | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services ### Codes - 90721700 - Endangered species protection services ## Release History - 6 Dec 2017 at 11:24 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2b0f8727-6e2b-4c7c-be1a-212f39f84b16 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2b0f8727-6e2b-4c7c-be1a-212f39f84b16 6th December 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - http://www.mytenders.org/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=DEC149252 NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the myTenders Web Site at the link provided. ## Notice URLs - http://www.northyorkmoors.org.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
