The contract, valued at £80,000 excluding VAT, involves providing arboricultural services primarily to the Planning department, with duties including dealing with tree works applications for protected trees, advising on tree-related matters in planning applications, and the creation of new Tree Preservation Orders. This contract is based in the United Kingdom within the UKH region, with the contract period starting on 4th May 2026 and potentially extendable by a further two years. The procurement process was conducted via an open competition under the below-threshold category and reached the award stage by 24th March 2026.
