The project covers a degraded peatland area requiring standard restoration techniques, including work on peat haggs, gullies, peat pans, micro-erosion and drains. Its purpose is to restore the condition and function of the peatland. The requirement is classified as environmental protection and peatland restoration works, with the main classification being CPV 45454100. The work is for one site and includes the areas described in the statement of requirements for Phases 4–6. Supporting site information includes access, location, peat-depth and designated-sites mapping. ADLnature is the buying organisation and central purchasing body. The process reached tender: ADLnature invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. It is a single-lot works contract. The buyer set 14 September 2026 at 09:00 UTC as the tender submission deadline and the start of the award period, with bids to remain valid until 30 April 2027. The contract period is 540 days. Electronic payment will be available and electronic invoicing is allowed. Bids must be submitted in English, variants are not allowed, and bidders must provide the names and qualifications of staff assigned to the work. The procurement is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. The bid opening is scheduled for 14 September 2026 at 09:00 UTC. This opportunity suits contractors able to carry out practical peatland restoration across a substantial, degraded site containing peat haggs, gullies, peat pans, micro-erosion and drains. Relevant suppliers will need teams whose names and professional qualifications can be provided with the bid, and the capacity to undertake the required works over a 540-day contract period. The project is aligned with standard restoration techniques described in the Peatland ACTION Technical compendium, so businesses familiar with those techniques and with working from detailed restoration requirements should be well placed to assess the requirement. Contractors will also need to interpret access, location, peat-depth and designated-sites plans when planning and delivering the works. ## Notice The propose of this project is to restore an otherwise degraded area of peatland through the use of standard restoration techniques (that can be found within the Peatland ACTION Technical compendium (https://www.nature.scot/doc/peatland-action-technical-compendium).
