## Summary

The contract titled "OSPAR Seal Indicator Analysis" was awarded by JNCC SUPPORT CO, a central government public authority based in Peterborough, UK. This procurement falls under the environmental services category and aims to analyse seal data for reporting population trends to the OSPAR Intermediate Assessment. The procurement stage has been completed, with the award made on 20 May 2026 for services to be delivered between 26 May 2026 and 31 March 2028. The procurement method used was direct, below threshold, and without competition.

This tender offers business growth opportunities primarily for organisations with expertise in environmental services, particularly those focusing on marine biology and data analysis. The engagement presents a distinct chance for consulting services specialising in niche environmental assessments to showcase their capabilities in delivering assessments on behalf of the UK. Large consulting firms with established experience in ecological research, similar to the successful supplier University of St Andrews Consulting Services Ltd, would be well-suited to compete for similar projects.

## Notice

This project aims to collate and analyse seal data feed into the reporting of seal population trends for the upcoming OSPAR Intermediate Assessment (IA29). The project will enable the JNCC to conduct assessments on behalf of the UK, as the indicator lead for seals.
