Deer vehicle collisions on the Scottish road network

Description

NatureScot and Transport Scotland are working together on a long-standing project investigating Deer Vehicle Collisions (DVCs) on the Scottish road network. The project includes looking at possible mitigation measures to help reduce the number of DVCs. In some situations this may require us to undertake deer counts using drones. We are therefore seeking details of suitably qualified contractors who are familiar with the use of drones for counting deer and who may wish to be contacted as part of any future formal procurement exercise where we require a drone count of deer. Expressions of interest should be submitted, along with a precis of your relevant experience, to dominic.sargent@nature.scot by 30th April 2024. N.B. please ignore the date at Section II.3 below. This is a mandatory field so a date is required, but no Contract Notice will be published as this is not a regulated procurement.
