Summary of the contracting process

Red Kite Community Housing has completed the procurement process for Tree Consultancy Services, awarding a contract to Dryad Tree Specialists Ltd for the provision of these services across High Wycombe and surrounding areas. This contracting initiative falls under the "Agricultural, forestry, horticultural, aquacultural and apicultural services" category, with specific CPV codes highlighting its focus on forestry management. The procurement process employed an open procedure aligned with CELEX legal standards and valued the contract at £307,200. This agreement, signed on 2nd February 2026, follows the initial tender issued in October 2024, which featured a tender period closing on 15th November 2024.

The contract presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in consultancy services within the forestry and horticultural sectors, particularly those capable of providing expert advice and management solutions. The tender aimed to ensure there is no conflict of interest with separately tendered Tree Maintenance Services, thus providing a focused consultancy environment. SMEs in this industry have already shown strong engagement, with all five bid submissions originating from such enterprises, as encapsulated in the tender's award criteria which balanced quality and price equally. This contract could pave the way for experienced tree consultancy firms to leverage their expertise in urban and suburban environments, potentially expanding their service portfolio and reinforcing their market position within the UK.
