## Summary

The Scottish Government is presently engaged in the award stage of a procurement process titled "Award of ATMOSPHERIC MODELLING DATA FOR SCOTTISH NITROGEN BALANCE SHEET." This initiative falls within the services industry category, focusing specifically on research and development services related to atmospheric nitrogen flows. The tender period began on 16 April 2021 and is set to conclude on 15 August 2021. The contract, valued at £4,848.48, has already been awarded to the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology, with the contract officially signed on 14 April 2021. The procurement is taking place in Scotland, specifically impacting several regions within the country.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in environmental research, data analysis, and modelling. Companies with expertise in atmospheric studies, agricultural emissions, and data consultancy could find the project aligned with their capabilities. Additionally, firms offering innovative solutions in monitoring nitrogen inputs and exports may benefit from similar future tender opportunities within the governmental framework, enabling growth in a market increasingly focused on environmental sustainability.

## Notice

The Scottish Government requires provision of model output data in relation to atmospheric nitrogen flows to/from Scotland (based on source attribution data).In particular, we require new data that quantifies key atmospheric nitrogen inputs/exports to/from Scotland through deposition to/from other parts of the UK and internationally. The data should be as up to date (close to the present day) as is possible. The dataset needs to distinguish nitrogen inputs by pollutant types (including; oxides of nitrogen, mainly from combustion emissions; ammonia, mainly from agricultural emission sources). It should also enable distinction of key emission source sectors such as agriculture, transport etc. where possible (insofar as such sectors are distinguished in the underlying source attribution modelling).
