Summary of the contracting process

Oakham Town Council is currently inviting competitive quotations for tree surgery work in three of its parks in Oakham, focused specifically on trees identified as Category 2 in a recent survey. The procurement process is in the 'Tender' stage with the publication date being 25th November 2025. The estimated budget for this tender is set between £8,000 and £20,000 and the contract is expected to commence on 12th January 2026 with a completion deadline by 31st March 2026. The locality of the project is within a conservation area of Oakham (postal code LE15 6AA), and interested parties must submit their bids by 21st December 2025. The industry category is classified under Agricultural, forestry, horticultural, aquacultural, and apicultural services.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) operating in the aforementioned industry to engage in public sector work, potentially supporting their business growth through municipal collaborations. Companies with expertise in providing tree surgery and arboricultural services, especially within sensitive or conservation areas, will find this tender particularly well-suited to their capabilities. As Oakham Town Council is managing the permit requirements, businesses can focus on delivering the core services, making this an attractive proposition for local service providers seeking to enhance their public sector portfolio.
