## Summary

The procurement process for the Peatland Restoration Scheme, spearheaded by RSPB Scotland, focuses on environmental protection through restoring 80 hectares of peatland at RSPB Abernethy, located in Nethy Bridge, UKM62. The contracting authority is RSPB Scotland, with a contact point in Edinburgh, and the review body is the Edinburgh Sheriff Court. Using an open procedure, this tender invites electronic submissions due by 4th May 2026 at noon, following a mandatory site visit scheduled for 20th April 2026. The procurement falls under the works category, with a budget estimate of £500,000 in GBP. Potential bidders must comply with the organisation’s terms and conditions and submit questions via the Public Contracts Scotland portal.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in environmental protection and civil engineering services related to peatland restoration. Companies with expertise in carbon capture, biodiversity enhancement, and extensive experience in outdoor terrain works will find this project well-suited to their capabilities. The scheme prioritises sustainability, providing growth prospects in enhancing ecological protection initiatives. Businesses capable of meeting the logistical demands of this location, including the strenuous site visitation, and adept in electronic submissions, will likely benefit by participating in this initiative. The potential for long-term engagement in environmental contracts is also significant given the comprehensive nature of the restoration period outlined.
