Summary of the contracting process

Pembrokeshire Coast National Park is procuring a framework of contractors for planned and responsive grounds and environmental maintenance across Pembrokeshire. The eleven lots cover fencing and removal; treatment of invasive non-native species; vegetation management at sites and along footpaths; tree work; ecology surveys, assessments and training; supply and delivery of kit bridges; gates, stiles and signposts; path and bridleway grading and surfacing; machinery servicing and repair; and timber procurement. The work combines services, practical site works and supply, so its relevance depends on the lot-specific capability a business provides. Barcud Shared Services is managing the procurement for the National Park. Delivery is across Pembrokeshire, with requirements ranging from field-based conservation and access work to supplying materials and maintaining machinery.

The open-procedure framework has been awarded, with multiple suppliers appointed to each of eight reported lots; award decisions for ecology, machinery maintenance and timber procurement are recorded as active but without named suppliers or values. The award date for the named lots is 15 October 2026. Their framework periods run from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2029, with an extension option of up to five years. For each named lot, the stated gross award value is £2,756,800; these are lot-level figures and should not be added together. Price carried 40% of the evaluation and quality 60%, covering experience, delivery, health, safety and environmental risk management, and sustainability. The awarded lots are fencing; invasive species; site and path vegetation management; tree work; kit bridges; gates, stiles and signposts; and plant work.

This framework shows demand from the National Park for a broad mix of practical land-management, access-infrastructure and environmental services, with awards made to multiple contractors rather than a single provider for each named lot. Small businesses were considered suitable, and the successful supplier pool includes local fencing, countryside-management, environmental and bridge specialists alongside larger contractors. Credible competitors will need evidence of relevant previous work and a clear plan for delivering the specific lot, supported by robust health and safety and environmental risk controls and a credible sustainability approach. Businesses should focus on the capability that matches their trade: for example, invasive-species control, vegetation clearance, tree work, fencing, access structures or path improvement. The framework has a planned reopening for competition within its first three years, making the buyer’s requirements and quality priorities useful intelligence for future participation.
