## Summary

The procurement process is being led by Scottish Natural Heritage for the project titled "Isle of May NNR - Painting of North Horn, South Horn and Lowlight Lighthouse and Cottage." The contract falls under the services category, specifically focusing on environmental protection. This opportunity is set to take place at the Isle of May National Nature Reserve in Perth, UK. Currently, the procurement is in the planning stage, with a deadline for expressions of interest by 5:00 PM on 4th August 2017. Additional information and documents related to the procurement have been published, including plans and photographs of the buildings involved.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in building maintenance and painting, particularly those with experience in working at height and in challenging conditions, due to the unique location of the structures near cliff edges. Companies that have previously painted listed buildings or those of a similar type will be well-suited for consideration. The project has a contract value under GBP 50,000, which is indicative of a less regulated procurement process, thus encouraging smaller firms to participate and grow their business through engagement with public sector contracts.
