## Summary

The Forestry Commission is currently engaged in a planning stage for a market research initiative titled "Market Research - Recreational Deer Management Permissions (RDMPs)", aimed at gathering feedback to inform future contract awards for Recreational Deer Management Permissions. This procurement process is based in Edinburgh, UK, with the relevant documents published on 31 August 2017. Although the initiative is classified under the services procurement category, it is essential to note that this is purely market research and not a formal tender process, and feedback collection will continue with a future notice date set for 1 June 2018.

This market research presents an excellent opportunity for businesses operating within the environmental protection sector and related fields to influence future contracting practices and potentially shape viable tender opportunities. Companies with expertise in deer management, environmental services, or related consultancy services would be well-suited to engage with the Forestry Commission during this phase, ensuring that their insights and expectations are considered in the development of upcoming Recreational Deer Management Permissions.
