The title of this process is "Deer and Other Wildlife", aimed at the collection, transport, and rendering or incineration of animal by-products from 37 deer larders across various locations in Scotland. The procurement stage is currently in the planning phase, with a future notice date set for 17th November 2025. Interested suppliers are requested to complete a survey by 15:00 on 17th October 2025 to provide their insights and expertise, which could influence the development of the procurement process. Locations involved include regions such as Inverness-shire, Ross-shire, Dumfries, and several others across Scotland, reflecting a widespread and inclusive tender opportunity. This procurement presents significant business growth opportunities for companies involved in environmental and waste management services, particularly those specialising in animal by-products. Businesses with expertise in transportation and rendering/incineration within the specified UK regions would be well-suited to compete. Additionally, firms that are experienced in handling contracts with complex logistical requirements across multiple locations could gain an advantageous position. The procurement's projected value of £1.62 million offers a substantial commercial opportunity for successful bidders, enabling them to expand their engagement within government exchanges and reinforce their market presence in Scotland's public sector. ## Notice FLS has a requirement to renew a Contract for collection, transport and rendering/incineration of animal by-products (deer/animal waste) from 37 Forestry Commission Scotland Deer Larders as listed in Lots. ### Lot Information North A FLS intends to award a contract for the collection, transport and rendering/incineration of animal by-products (deer waste) from 37 Forestry Commission Scotland deer larders as listed in Lots and indicated on the attached maps.
