Summary of the contracting process

The Forestry Commission is conducting an open procurement process for the "Tree Health Pest and Disease Surveys" project, focused on agricultural, forestry, horticultural, aquacultural, and apicultural services within the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom. This initiative aims to award a framework agreement for a four-year period, commencing on 1st April 2020, to manage woodland and tree surveys to monitor specific tree pests and diseases. The tender period concludes on 3rd February 2020, and the contract will take effect from the beginning of April 2020.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) engaged in environmental consultancy and forestry management. Companies that specialise in pest and disease identification, tree health assessments, and urban forestry projects will find themselves well-positioned to compete for this contract. With the uncertainty surrounding the prevalence of tree pests, this is a chance for businesses to establish long-term partnerships and drive growth in the sustainable management of woodland resources.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Tree Health Pest and Disease Surveys

Notice Description

Text to be corrected in the original notice: Place of text to be modified: II.1.3) Instead of: Works Read: Services Other additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement. We will be awarding a framework agreement for the provision of woodland and tree surveys, potentially including urban trees, to detect, assess and sample for the presence of specific tree pests and diseases in England. Our intention is to award this framework agreement for a period of four years starting from 01/04/2020 to replace the existing framework agreement (SF003/2016). Due to the unpredictable nature of tree pests & diseases there may be an overlap in service delivery where continuation of works must continue under the previous framework to allow a sufficient hand period over to a new Supplier.
