Summary of the contracting process

Cumberland Council has initiated an open procurement process for an arboricultural services framework covering parks and green spaces in the Cumberland area. The framework, valued between £360,000 and £480,000, is divided into four lots across two regional areas (Northern and Southern). Specific work packages include specialist and standard arboricultural tasks. The procurement, classified under forestry and horticultural services, is at the tender stage with a deadline for submissions on 16th September 2024. The contract will run from 1st November 2024 to 31st October 2027, targeting the England region within the United Kingdom.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses with expertise in arboricultural and horticultural services, particularly those experienced in handling both standard and specialist tree works. Although tailored for larger enterprises, SMEs can also benefit from subcontracting opportunities within the framework’s extensive work packages. Engaging in this contract can enhance a company's portfolio with public sector projects and provide long-term business stability through a substantial, multi-year agreement with a reputable local authority like Cumberland Council.

Notice Title

Arboricultural Services Framework for Parks and Green Spaces in the Cumberland Area

Notice Description

Cumberland Council is seeking to appoint suitably qualified and experienced contractors to a framework agreement for arboricultural services on parks and green spaces in the district. The agreement will be divided into two areas, reflecting the extent of the district and also existing arrangements by which tree work is being undertaken. Within each area there will be a further sub-division to reflect standard tree works (most work undertaken) and specialist works, where officer discretion identifies a need for technical work on sensitive or vulnerable sites. The services have been divided into the following work packages (Lots): Northern Area Lot 1 (Specialist Arboricultural Work) Northern Area Lot 2 (Arboricultural Work) Southern Area Lot 1 (Specialist Arboricultural Work) Southern Area Lot 2 (Arboricultural Work)
