NatureScot intends to establish a multi‑supplier Framework Agreement for the provision of peatland monitoring survey services to support the Peatland ACTION Restoration Monitoring Network (RMN). The requirement includes undertaking vegetation quadrat surveys, feature status assessments, fixed‑point photography and area‑level assessments across peatland restoration sites throughout Scotland. Surveys will be carried out between May and October each year, with an estimated 17 sites in 2026 and approximately 12 sites per year thereafter, subject to annual programme needs. The framework is intended to appoint up to ten suppliers to ensure national geographic coverage, flexibility and resilience.
Framework contract: £220,000 total value shared among 10 suppliers. Estimated equal shares shown below.
