Summary of the contracting process

Natural Resources Wales procured peatland restoration works under its Peatlands Restoration Framework 2026–2034. This call-off covers scrub-removal work, supporting the restoration and management of peatland sites. The work is to be delivered in West Wales and the Valleys. Natural Resources Wales is the public-sector buyer and the selected contractor is Cwm Agricultural, an Aberdare-based small and medium-sized enterprise. The requirement is therefore relevant to contractors with practical land-management capability, particularly experience in scrub clearance and works undertaken in environmentally sensitive peatland settings. It may also suit agricultural, habitat-management or countryside-management businesses able to mobilise equipment and staff for site-based vegetation removal across locations in the Welsh delivery area.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It was a selective, below-threshold award made under the Peatlands Restoration Framework, without a competitive call-off. Cwm Agricultural was selected and the contract was signed on 23 July 2026. The contract period runs from 31 August to 30 September 2026, with a maximum extension date of 31 October 2026; renewal is permitted if required. The contract value is £43,450 excluding VAT and £52,139.98 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The published process records one completed lot for this call-off. No award cancellation or contract termination is recorded.

This award gives competing suppliers a clear picture of Natural Resources Wales’ demand for practical peatland restoration works delivered through its established framework. A credible future supplier would need to demonstrate effective scrub removal, safe operation of suitable land-management equipment and the ability to complete short, site-based works within a defined delivery window. Experience of peatlands, habitat restoration, conservation land or other environmentally sensitive sites would strengthen a response, alongside competent staff, mobilisation arrangements and appropriate health, safety and environmental controls. The award to an Aberdare-based SME indicates that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist contractor rather than only a large national organisation. Suppliers seeking comparable work would need access to the relevant framework route.
