Summary of the contracting process

Monmouthshire County Council, in collaboration with Torfaen County Borough Council and Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council, is currently in the tendering stage for the establishment of an Arboriculture Services Framework. This initiative focuses on providing comprehensive arboriculture services within the boundaries of the three local authorities as well as external clients across South Wales. The contract, valued at £2,530,000, aims to manage and maintain thousands of trees and includes a wide range of services from tree surveys and maintenance to the supply of trees and shrubs. This open procurement process is a significant opportunity for businesses in the forestry and horticulture industry, with an enquiry period closing on 17th July 2026 and a tender submission deadline of 3rd August 2026.

This tender presents a vital opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) specialising in tree maintenance, landscaping, and forestry services. It allows for engagement in diverse projects, offering ongoing work tasks that vary in scope and scale, which could provide steady contract opportunities and revenue growth. Businesses with capabilities in delivering high-quality tree maintenance, condition surveys, and mechanical removal services would be well-suited to compete for this framework. Emphasis on price, quality, and social value adds significant advantages, fostering sustainable growth and community benefits in the contracting regions.
