The tender is open and will close on 18 March 2021 at 14:00 GMT, with the bid opening commencing shortly after at 14:30 GMT. The total estimated contract value is £240,000, with a framework agreement structured into various lots, allowing suppliers to bid on multiple survey types including Preliminary Ecological Appraisals, Habitat Surveys, and Bat Surveys, among others. The procurement method employed is the open procedure, facilitating an inclusive bidding process. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialised in ecological and environmental services, particularly those that focus on conducting various ecological surveys. Companies engaged in wildlife preservation, including those experienced in assessments of habitats, species protection, and ecological consultancy, would find this procurement particularly relevant. With the potential to secure multiple lots, businesses can scale their operations or enhance their service offerings in alignment with environmental compliance and conservation efforts as mandated by the council. ## Notice BCP Council's Transforming Cities Fund (TCF) has a requirement for terrestrial ecology surveys (i.e. scope excludes marine). Rather than procure for the requirements of TCF alone, Procurement have identified a wider BCP Council requirement for a new corporate contract with customers in departments including but not limited to Environment (Parks), Housing (Asset Development) and Engineering. Ecological Surveys are required to enable habitats and species to be protected from development, and/or otherwise improved. The framework is divided into lots. The intention of this procurement is to conclude a single framework agreement for each Lot and each framework agreement will be with a single economic operator. Section 1.9 below describes restrictions on bidding for lots. ### Lot Information Preliminary Ecological Appraisals (PEA) Preliminary Ecological Appraisals (PEA) Habitat Surveys Habitat Surveys - including but not limited to: o Phase 1 Habitat Survey o National Vegetation Classification (NVC) Badger Surveys Badger Surveys Bat Surveys Bat Surveys Fish Surveys Fish Surveys Hazel or Common Dormouse Surveys Hazel or Common Dormouse Surveys Invertebrate Surveys Invertebrate Surveys Newt Surveys Newt Surveys Otter Surveys Otter Surveys Reptile Surveys Reptile Surveys Wild Bird Surveys Wild Bird Surveys ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/002191-2021 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 3 Feb 2021 | | Submission deadline | 18 Mar 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £240,000 | | Lots value | £239,500 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | BOURNEMOUTH CHRISTCHURCH AND POOLE COUNCIL | | Locality | BOURNEMOUTH | | Post town | Bournemouth | | Postcode | BH2 6DY | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK6 North Somerset, Somerset and Dorset | | ITL 3 | TLK63 Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole | | Local authority | Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole | | Electoral ward | Bournemouth Central | | Westminster constituency | Bournemouth West | | Delivery location | UKK21 Bournemouth and Poole | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ### Codes - 71400000 - Urban planning and landscape architectural services - 92534000 - Wildlife preservation services ## Release History - 3 Feb 2021 at 16:11 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/002191-2021 ## Notice URLs - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert/Index?advertId=11ad7fad-0966-eb11-8108-005056b64545 - https://www.bcpcouncil.gov.uk - https://www.supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
