The procurement process is currently in the active status, with a contract value of £31,240. The tender deadline is 30th November 2023, and the contract period is from 1st January to 31st March 2024. This tender for bird surveys by Natural England offers business growth opportunities for companies providing research and development services in the Yorkshire area. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) interested in environmental consultancy services would find this procurement particularly suitable for their expertise. The open procedure below threshold allows fair competition for interested businesses to submit their quotations by the deadline set on 30th November 2023. ## Notice Natural England wishes to commission passage and wintering bird surveys during January 2023 to March 2024, across terrestrial land with a potential to provide supporting habitat for bird species associated with the Humber Estuary Special Protection Area (SPA)/ Ramsar. These surveys will cover the north bank of the Humber Estuary only and be used to inform habitat suitability modelling for golden plover, curlew and lapwing and therefore a methodology has been proposed to systematically sample areas within a 10km radius of the Humber Estuary in Yorkshire. Please find further information within the project specification.
