## Summary

The Scottish Government is currently inviting tenders for the "North West Anglerfish Survey," a project aimed at conducting a single trawl survey of the Northeast Atlantic. This procurement, classified under public services within the marine industry, falls under the open procedure method. Interested bidders must submit their proposals electronically by 27th January 2020, with the charter expected to start on 14th April 2020 and last for 10 days, returning to a Northern Scottish port.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses operating demersal trawlers of a length exceeding 25.9 metres.

The requirement for qualified personnel and the project’s alignment with annual survey activities underscore the prospects for continued collaboration with the Scottish Government in similar future initiatives.
