Two worked examples are provided in Annex 1, the text in these examples is for reference only to depict how conclusions were made, it is anticipated that the outputs the successful Contractor provides will be in a spreadsheet format. Please note, some citations will be easier than the examples, and others more complex. Natural England will provide guidance on award of contract to assist with the interpretation of the citations and ensure a consistent approach is taken across sites.
When listing the identified features of a site this should be expressed in simple and brief terms, as written in the citation. There is no need to alter the wording or to fit the features into pre-defined categories such as National Vegetation Classification (NVC) or Common Standards Monitoring classifications. ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** complete - **Delivery regions:** UK - **Contract Period:** 16/01/2023 to 29/12/2023 - **Options published:** yes ## Awards & Winning Suppliers (1) - **Award:** 003666-2023-1 (active) - Supplier(s): **FPCR Environment and Design Ltd.** - Supplier identifiers: `GB-FTS-29056` - Value: £160,298 † (exc.
