Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the NRW Supplementary Plant Supply Framework - Mini Competition 2026 has been completed, with awards issued on 13th July 2026. Natural Resources Wales, operating under the Welsh devolved regulations, spearheaded this tender with a focus on "goods" in the forestry and logging products industry. Key lots in this contract include broadleaves and conifers in both bare root and cell grown formats. The contracts will commence on 27th July 2026 and conclude on 20th July 2029, with delivery across regions in the United Kingdom. This selective procurement method is competitive and was conducted as an award under an existing framework.

This tender provides an excellent opportunity for businesses involved in nursery, forestry, and logging sectors to extend their market presence. It is particularly interesting for SMEs like Cheviot Trees, Berrygate Hill Nurseries, and TreesPlease Ltd, who were selected as suppliers, highlighting the opportunity for similar sized businesses to engage in significant government contracts. With a substantial aggregate contract value for the awarded lots, this procurement offers a robust platform for business growth and partnerships with public authorities. Businesses that specialise in plant supply and have capabilities to meet the demands of large-scale forestry and logging product contracts would find this tender particularly suited to their services.
