## Summary

The Scottish Government, specifically the Marine Directorate, has initiated a procurement process titled "Mapping, evaluating and identifying opportunities for improvement in reprocessing infrastructure," with the target of enhancing reprocessing infrastructure for end-of-life fishing and aquaculture gear across Scotland. This tender falls under the industry category of general public services with a focus on improving waste reprocessing facilities. The contract, now in the award stage, was awarded to Resource Futures for a value of £65,266.05, with the contract active as of 19th May 2025. The open procedure method was employed, indicating a transparent and competitive bidding process, with key dates initially set with the tender submission deadline by 20th January 2025 and project completion anticipated by 27th June 2025.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for businesses with expertise in waste management, specifically those involved in reprocessing plastic polymers in the fishing and aquaculture sectors. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) specialising in environmental innovation, resource optimisation, and infrastructure evaluation could find this contract particularly rewarding. The expected deliverables include comprehensive mapping and reporting on the existing and potential reprocessing infrastructure. Companies with experience in delivering complex analysis and development projects, along with a solid understanding of the Scottish environmental policy and marine sectors, would be well-suited to compete for future tenders in this domain.
