This contract falls under the general public services industry category and is located within the UKM region. The procurement stage is complete, and the contract has been awarded to Ironside Farrar Limited with a contract value of £200,000. The contract was signed on 30th October 2024, following an open procedure procurement method. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses, particularly those with expertise in environmental consultancy and hazard risk assessment, to engage with the Scottish Government's high-value projects. SMEs specialising in technical environmental services would be well-suited to compete for similar opportunities. This contract requires the successful supplier to provide expert technical advice on peat stability for various development proposals under the Electricity Act 1989, making it an attractive growth opportunity for businesses in the environmental consulting sector. ## Notice The Scottish Government Energy Consents Unit is seeking expert technical advice from qualified professionals on peat stability matters in relation to development proposals under section 36, 36C and 37 of the Electricity Act 1989. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The Scottish Government requires expert technical input from qualified professionals on peat stability matters at different stages in the process in dealing with Electricity Act Applications. In order to determine the applications described above, the Scottish Government requires access to technical expertise to audit the environmental information provided by developers against the Scottish Government Best Practice Guide referred to above; to make recommendations to Scottish Ministers on how any matters which fall short of best practice should be addressed; to provide advice and drafting input to Scottish Ministers on planning conditions which may be required to mitigate peat landslide risks; and to provide advice to Scottish Ministers on requirements for PLHRAs during EIA screening and scoping. These services may be required in the context on any of the applications under the Electricity Act which are determined by Scottish Ministers. Options: It is not possible to predict exactly how many EIA development Electricity Act Applications or how many peat stability and landslide hazard risk assessments will be required to be appraised in the period of the service contract, as this is dependent on applications submitted by developers which the Scottish Government has no control over. Renewal: The contract will be for a period of 24 months commencing on 29th November 2024, with the option to extend the contract by a further 12 months. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV518345 | | Notice type | OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 14 Nov 2024 | | Submission deadline | 9 Sep 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 30 Oct 2024 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £200,000 | | Lots value | £200,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £200,000 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT | | Locality | GLASGOW | | Post town | Glasgow | | Postcode | G2 8EA | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM3 West Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM32 Glasgow City | | Local authority | Glasgow City | | Electoral ward | Anderston/City/Yorkhill | | Westminster constituency | Glasgow North | | Delivery location | TLM Scotland | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | IRONSIDE FARRAR | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services ### Codes - 90700000 - Environmental services - 90711400 - Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) services other than for construction - 90714000 - Environmental auditing ## Release History - 14 Nov 2024 at 00:00 - Award - OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV518345 - 8 Aug 2024 at 00:00 - Tender - OJEU - F2 - Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG511660 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG511660 Appraisal of Peat Landslide Hazard Risk Assessments - The Scottish Government Energy Consents Unit is seeking expert technical advice from qualified professionals on peat stability matters in relation to development proposals under section 36, 36C and 37 of the Electricity Act 1989. - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV518345 Appraisal of Peat Landslide Hazard Risk Assessments - The Scottish Government Energy Consents Unit is seeking expert technical advice from qualified professionals on peat stability matters in relation to development proposals under section 36, 36C and 37 of the Electricity Act 1989. ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://www.gov.scot/Topics/Government/Procurement/Selling/supplier-enquiries - http://www.publictendersscotland.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk - http://www.scotcourts.gov.uk/the-courts/sheriff-court/find-a-court - http://www.scotland.gov.uk - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000774684 - https://www.publictendersscotland.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
