Provincie Groningen is organizing a market consultation in preparation for a future procurement for the conclusion of a framework agreement for ecological research for the benefit of the SMP of the municipalities of Groningen. Through this market consultation, the province aims to gain insight into market developments, technical possibilities, points of attention, and feasible solution directions, with the goal of arriving at a careful, realistic, and well-suited request for tender. Additionally, the province wishes to gain insight into which parties are interested in the assignment and in wha
02Strategic insight
Ensure specialist expertise in recognizing specific sounds (such as the serotine bat) and the use of telemetric transmitters. Take into account the need for advanced equipment such as bat recorders, bat loggers, and thermal imaging cameras. Be prepared for complex methodologies, such as attracting bats with sound or the use of e-DNA.
