Summary of the contracting process

Broadacres Housing Association appointed a single supplier to deliver a tree safety and condition survey programme across its whole housing estate in the United Kingdom. The services comprise comprehensive visual inspections of each tree, application of the THREATS risk-rating methodology, and structured subsidence-risk assessments for trees near buildings, hard surfaces or drainage systems. The supplier must capture accurate GIS mapping data for every surveyed tree and provide document-based outputs, including PDF reports, Excel datasets and GIS layers. This is a specialist surveying and tree-management service, classified under CPV 71355000 and 77211500. The requirement is for an organisation able to coordinate surveys across multiple Broadacres sites, including locations where trees may be unidentified or access may be restricted.

The procurement is complete following an above-threshold open procedure. Eight bids were received and all eight final-stage bidders were SMEs. The estimated tender value was £170,000 excluding VAT (£204,000 including VAT). The tender closed on 3 September 2026 at 5pm, with enquiries closing on 26 August 2026 at 5pm; the award decision period was due to end on 1 October 2026. The contract was awarded to Rennison Tree Specialists Ltd on 11 September 2026 for £25,000 excluding VAT (£30,000 including VAT). The awarded contract runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2028, with Broadacres holding an option to extend it to 30 September 2029. Price and quality each carried 50% of the evaluation weighting, with economic and technical participation requirements.

This award shows that Broadacres’ requirement is suited to specialist arboricultural and tree-survey businesses, including SMEs. A credible future competitor would need qualified staff and practical capacity to inspect trees across a housing association estate, manage restricted access and investigate trees that have not previously been identified. Core capability includes tree safety and condition surveying, applying the THREATS risk-rating methodology, assessing subsidence risk around buildings, hard surfaces and drainage, and collecting reliable GIS mapping data. Suppliers should also be able to turn fieldwork into consistent PDF reporting, Excel datasets and GIS layers, while managing site information and survey records at estate scale. The equal weighting for price and quality indicates that technical delivery and the quality of the proposed approach matter as much as cost.
