## Summary

The Scottish Government has awarded a contract for the charter of live fish capture services for FISP Aquarium Trials, titled "Award of 0822H - Charter for Live Fish Capture for FISP Aquarium Trials". The procurement process was initiated with a tender period from 10th October 2022 to 07th November 2022. The contract was signed on 7th October 2022, with Stonehaven Shellfish & Boat trips winning the award. The procurement falls under the services category and aims to collect cod as bycatch for behavioural studies in the Fish Behaviour Unit, part of the CodSELect project funded by the Fisheries Industry Science Partnership.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses involved in ship chartering services to compete for contracts with Marine Scotland.

The contract's focus on behavioural studies and scientific projects makes it ideal for suppliers with experience in marine research support. The location in Aberdeen provides a strategic advantage for local businesses looking to partake in the public procurement process within the Scottish Government's initiatives.
