Our role is to provide scientific evidence, information, and advice to inform decisions to  protect the natural environment. Our specific role is to work on nature conservation issues that affect the UK as a whole and internationally, by:
•	advising Government on the development and implementation of policies for, or affecting, nature conservation in the UK and internationally;
•	providing advice and disseminating knowledge on nature conservation issues affecting the UK and internationally;

Background to JNCC can be found on JNCC's website at: https://jncc.gov.uk/about-jncc/
2.	 Project Aims
JNCC wishes to commission a contract to undertake the analysis of seabed imagery (still images and video) collected on the 0924S survey from a drop-frame camera. Seabed imagery will be analysed using the image and video annotation software BIIGLE . During 0924S, imagery data was collected for MPA monitoring purposes.
The total number of sampled drop-camera stations was 80; circa 38 hours of high-definition video. Due to technical difficulties, the camera had to be restarted during 4 transects, resulting in multiple videos for these transects, giving a total of 85 videos to be analysed. Videos from one transect should be analysed together. A total of 3,530 still images were collected across 79 of the drop-camera stations.
More detailed metadata will be provided including information from logs and the survey report. Throughout the tender process, guest access to the 2024 BIIGLE project will be provided to allow review of the available images. The successful contractor will be provided with access to the 2024 BIIGLE project and the annotated 2018 WTR seabed imagery to aid with identification.
Please note that experience in the identification of deep-sea taxa is required to complete this contract.
The bid submission should clearly state which of the following options are being bid for, please provide a quote for either option 1, 2 or 3:
Option 1
Video analysis, please provide a quote for the cost and breakdown per video hour
Option 2
Stills analysis, please provide a quote for the cost and breakdown of the number of stills
