## Summary

The Scottish Government bought servicing for a hydroacoustic (sonar) camera and rotator. The work covers collecting the equipment, dispatching it for servicing, carrying out the technical service and returning it to the Government. This is a specialist equipment-maintenance requirement rather than a purchase of new cameras or a broader marine monitoring service. The buyer is the Scottish Government; the delivery location is not stated in the procurement details, beyond the requirement to return the equipment to the Government.

The procurement has been awarded to Atlantic Salmon Trust, and the contract is recorded as active. The award was valued at £12,307.80. The process sought bids for the equipment collection, dispatch, technical servicing and return. One bid was recorded. The procurement data gives a tender-period start date of 10 January 2026, but no bid deadline, award date or contract-period dates are recorded. There is no stated lot structure or evaluation basis, and the procurement method is not identified. The recorded award value relates to this single supplier; no separate lot awards are reported.

For firms considering similar future work for the Scottish Government, this award is evidence of demand for servicing a specific hydroacoustic camera and rotator, including the logistics of collection and return as well as technical maintenance. A credible competitor would need the technical capability to service sonar imaging equipment and its rotator, and to manage the equipment’s secure dispatch and return. Experience maintaining precision or specialist marine instrumentation would be relevant to demonstrating that capability. The modest, single-equipment requirement suggests a focused service engagement, rather than a large multi-site maintenance programme. The supplier selected was Atlantic Salmon Trust, and one bid was recorded, indicating a narrow competition in this instance.

## Notice
