Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council is seeking bids for the tender titled "PLACE137 Highway Tree Survey: Identifying and Recording Ash Trees and Ash Dieback Disease in Derbyshire." The procurement process is currently in the active stage, with a focus on the construction consultancy services industry. The tender period will close on 18 July 2022, and the contract is set to commence on 1 August 2022, lasting until 31 March 2023. This survey is essential for addressing the public risk posed by ash dieback along the extensive 5,340 km of Derbyshire's highway network, which consists of various classifications of roads.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in environmental consultancy and tree surveys. Companies with expertise in forestry health assessments, particularly those adept in identifying environmental diseases, would be well-suited to submit proposals. The project budget is £130,000, indicating the potential for SMEs to engage in meaningful work to mitigate the effects of ash dieback and enhance public safety. Given the ongoing nature of the surveys, there may also be future contracts available based on the findings from this initial project.

Notice Information

Notice Title

PLACE137 Highway Tree Survey: Identifying and Recording Ash Trees and Ash Dieback Disease in Derbyshire

Notice Description

Ash dieback is a fungal disease thought to have originated in eastern Asia and imported into mainland Europe in the 1990s, it has spread rapidly across the continent with the first recorded case in the UK in 2012. The disease is usually fatal for young ash trees and can kill saplings within one growing season. Larger mature ash with the infection is thought to be more tolerant or declines at a slower rate over several years. The County Council has identified its highway network as the highest priority to begin ash Dieback surveys due to the high level of public risk from failing trees. Derbyshire's highway network is large and consists of approximately 5340km in total, made up of 1162km A & B roads and 4178km of C and unclassified roads. This procurement is for a highway tree survey in the 2022/23 financial year. Further surveys will be commissioned in subsequent years based on the initial findings.
