Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Natural Resources Wales (NRW) aims to establish a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) titled "Direct Production Harvesting - Dynamic Purchasing System" for timber harvesting services across North, Mid, and South Wales. This set of contracts is currently in the award stage, with contracts already signed as of February 9, 2020. The procurement follows a restricted procedure, facilitating bidding for timber harvesting, including felling and processing trees according to environmental specifications. The process invites applications from suitable suppliers through a designated eTendering portal.

This tender creates significant opportunities for businesses within the forestry and logging sector, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can provide timber harvesting and vegetation management services. Companies involved in felling, processing, and transportation of timber, especially those with expertise in environmental compliance and sustainable practices, would be well-positioned to compete for these contracts. Engaging in this DPS allows businesses to contribute to NRW's statutory environmental duties while potentially generating substantial revenue through long-term contracts in three distinct geographical regions.
