This procurement process is currently at the tender stage, with submissions due by 12 October 2020. The project has an overall value of £200,000 and will follow an open procurement method, allowing for broad participation. The successful bidders will commence work from 1 November 2020 and should complete the project by 31 March 2021. This tender provides an excellent opportunity for businesses involved in environmental restoration, landscape management, and related construction services. Companies specialising in peatland recovery, ecological consulting, and sustainable landscaping will find this project particularly relevant. As the initiative aims to improve water quality and reduce carbon emissions, businesses with expertise in conservation and ecological engineering are well-suited to compete. Engaging in this project not only helps bolster their portfolios but also aligns with growing environmental commitments across various sectors. ## Notice The objective of this project is to stabilise the existing peatland vegetation to prevent further erosion and degradation and re-vegetate bare peat across the 40ha Lochend apportionment, 27ha of peatland restoration. In addition, the restoration aims to reduce Carbon emissions, improve water quality, raise the water table, reduce sedimentation, and enhance biodiversity. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The objective of this project is to stabilise the existing peatland vegetation to prevent further erosion and degradation and re-vegetate bare peat across the 40ha Lochend apportionment, 27ha of peatland restoration. In addition, the restoration aims to reduce Carbon emissions, improve water quality, raise the water table, reduce sedimentation, and enhance biodiversity. The network of erosion gullies that currently drain the bog will be re-profiled and blocked to prevent further drying out of the bog, old peat banks will be re-profiled and the bare peat around them bunded and repaired. NB all measurements and areas are taken from Bing aerial imagery and are approximate Procurement will be done on the basis of tenders which accurately reflect the attached Statement of Requirements. Failure to reflect the SoR will seriously impact on scoring of tenders. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT396172 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 2 Oct 2020 | | Submission deadline | 12 Oct 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Nov 2020 - 31 Mar 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £200,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SHETLAND AMENITY TRUST | | Locality | LERWICK | | Post town | Lerwick | | Postcode | ZE1 0NY | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM2 Highlands and Islands | | ITL 3 | TLM20 Highlands and Islands | | Local authority | Shetland Islands | | Electoral ward | Lerwick North and Bressay | | Westminster constituency | Orkney and Shetland | | Delivery location | TLM66 Shetland Islands | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45200000 - Works for complete or part construction and civil engineering work - 45240000 - Construction work for water projects ## Release History - 2 Oct 2020 at 00:00 - Tender - PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT396172 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=OCT396172&idx=4 5th October 2020 - Additional information on the naure of the site - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=OCT396172&idx=1 2nd October 2020 - Project statement of Requirements - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=OCT396172&idx=2 2nd October 2020 - Site cost spreadsheet in machine days - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=OCT396172&idx=3 2nd October 2020 - Site costs spreadsheet in meterage - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT396172 Lochend 2020 Peatland Restoration Project Statement of Requirement - The objective of this project is to stabilise the existing peatland vegetation to prevent further erosion and degradation and re-vegetate bare peat across the 40ha Lochend apportionment, 27ha of peatland restoration.
