Summary of the contracting process

The Council of the Borough of Kirklees has awarded a contract for the "Tree Planting - MOD Harrogate" project under a restricted procurement process, specifically through limited competition below threshold, advertised via the YORtender portal. The awarded contract, signed on 11th December 2025, is scheduled to commence on 15th December 2025 and will run until 14th December 2026, with an option for a further one-year extension. This project falls under the services category, focusing on planting and maintenance services of green areas, with the work taking place at the Ministry of Defence (MOD) site in Harrogate, United Kingdom. The selected supplier is F&W Forestry UK Ltd, a small to medium-sized enterprise based in Exeter.

This contract represents a valuable opportunity for businesses involved in environmental services, particularly those specialising in planting and maintenance of green areas, to expand their portfolio by aligning with governmental projects. Enterprises like F&W Forestry UK Ltd that have expertise in forestry management and environmental horticulture stand well-positioned to benefit substantially from such contracts. The involvement of a public authority like Kirklees Council offers further credibility and potential for ongoing collaboration, both within the local region and potentially across other MOD sites, enhancing business growth through public-sector partnership.
