## Summary

The public procurement process titled "CEFAS24-138 Contract for satellite data imagery for Blue Belt island nations" was managed by Cefas, with the procurement process at the award stage as of 17 November 2025. The project, valued at £24,406, focuses on data collection and collation services within the environmental services sector. The tender is part of the Blue Belt programme aimed at marine conservation, particularly involving projects in Anguilla and Diego Garcia. Originally planned to commence on 18 November 2024 and culminating on 31 March 2026, this open procedure had Jeremy Benn Associates Limited (JBA Consulting) selected as the supplier.

This tender presents a growth opportunity for businesses engaged in satellite data services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as it involves the interpretation and delivery of satellite imagery. The initiative is essential for developing marine conservation strategies in remote UK Overseas Territories, where comparable expertise could further support related environmental and geographical projects. Businesses with a focus on environmental data analytics, remote sensing technologies, and marine ecosystem management will find this contract particularly conducive to their operations and growth potentials.

## Notice

The Blue Belt programme is the UK Government's international marine conservation programme. It works closely with UK Overseas Territories to assist them in creating and maintaining healthy and productive marine ecosystems. As part of this programme, the Cefas coastal processes team have been working on two projects in Anguilla and Diego Garcia, to help monitor erosion of the coastline. A large part of this work is helping to improve the understanding of the natural processes that are occurring on the islands through modelling and mapping the historic movement of the coastline. This is with an aim to create a database of historic and present coastal data, which can be used to determine an environmental baseline to advise coastal management decisions in the future. Due to the remote location of these islands and small populations, background environmental data is sparse. Therefore, Cefas require satellite imagery of the islands over a range of dates for each island, in which the shoreline can be extracted to
