Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
This is a specialist role requiring formal qualifications in ecology or environmental science and professional field survey experience. Most tradespeople without a relevant degree or extensive ecology background will not meet the essential criteria.
How to bid
This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
