The deadline for submission of bids is set for 29th November 2019, while the contract period is expected to commence on 31st December 2019 and conclude by 31st March 2020, with delivery scheduled within Scotland. This opportunity presents a significant growth potential for businesses specialising in acoustic technology and environmental monitoring solutions, particularly those that can demonstrate expertise in tracking and data collection for aquatic ecosystems. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are well-suited to compete, especially those with a proven track record in similar projects or those that can meet the specific insurance and financial requirements outlined in the tender documents. Suppliers are encouraged to prepare their electronic submissions well ahead of the deadline to ensure their response is considered. ## Notice The Scottish Ministers wish to purchase a maximum of 240 acoustic, coded ID transmitters, and a maximum of 60 acoustic receivers operating at 180kHz.
