## Summary

The Scottish Government has initiated an open procurement process for the "ENFOR - Scottish Coastal LiDAR Survey," underlining its commitment to the Scottish National Adaptation Plan 3. This contract is valued at £750,000 and is in the tender stage, focusing on airborne LiDAR surveys across Scotland's coastal zones, inclusive of intertidal areas. The procurement is categorized under general public services and will cover multiple geographical areas within the UKM region. Interested parties are required to submit their electronic bids by 1st September 2025, coinciding with the start of the award period on the same date. The buyer for this initiative is based in Glasgow, reflecting its role as a central purchasing body and highlighting its approach to integrating technology and environment-related services.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specializing in geographical and environmental surveying services, particularly those capable of offering innovative approaches such as Green LiDAR. The procurement method embraces an open procedure, optimising accessibility for a range of service providers who meet the economic, financial, and insurance criteria specified. Businesses equipped to handle large-scale surveying and data processing in coastal and intertidal zones are particularly well-suited to compete. With a focus on delivering high-quality LiDAR data and analysis, companies with expertise in digital terrain modelling and quality assurance in this field will find ample scope for expansion and success within this government-backed project.

## Notice

In support of the Scottish Government's commitments within the Scottish National Adaptation Plan 3 (https://adaptation.scot/about/about-the-scottish-governments-national-adaptation-plan-snap3/) we are commissioning airborne LiDAR surveys of Scotland's coastal zone, including the intertidal area.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

We require LiDAR survey outputs for the proposed survey areas, which will be detailed within the specification, including LAS files, Digital Surface Models, Digital Terrain Models and associated QA assurance statements. The Areas of Interest define the anticipated extent of the LiDAR survey. These extend over multiple geographic areas, as defined within the specification. We anticipate that the surveys will need to be phased to coincide with appropriate low tide conditions. We anticipate that 'standard LiDAR sensor' will be used, though if the contractor proposed to use Green LiDAR / Marine LiDAR to deliver the same outputs whilst the tide is in, then we remain open to these approaches. Given the expansive areas, we do not expect UAV/Drone surveys to be appropriate.
