Lot Information

Lot 1

NRW is intending to award a 4 year Framework Agreement contract commencing 01 August 2024 to a Contractor that can supply two Drivers to operate a Wetland Harvester (PistenBully) and attachments.

This PistenBully is a self-propelled, compact, low ground pressure, tracked machine which carries a range of implements for cutting and harvesting wetland vegetation, chipping timber and herbicide application, as detailed below and described in the enclosed specification documents.
