## Summary

Scottish Natural Heritage has successfully completed the contract for the "Species on the Edge Website Design" project, which falls under the environmental protection category. The project aimed to develop a standalone, responsive website to promote and engage the public with the Species on the Edge programme. Zudu Ltd, based in Dundee, was awarded the contract, with the contract officially signed on 16th May 2024. The process followed an open procurement method, and the tender was managed electronically. The project, valued at £18,750 excluding VAT, will be supported until 31st March 2032. The procurement started with a tender notice published on 5th December 2023, with the submission period ending on 31st January 2024.

This tender offers substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for web design companies capable of creating engaging and functional websites. Businesses specialising in environmental communication, with experience in responsive design and long-term project support, would have been well-suited for this opportunity. The focus on price and quality criteria, such as understanding the requirements and providing economic value, indicates a competitive yet achievable tender for well-qualified firms. This project underlines the importance of offering innovative solutions while maintaining economic efficiency, a hallmark for firms looking to differentiate themselves in the public procurement space.
