UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council procured arboricultural survey and impact assessment services for activity in the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole area. The scope covers work described in BS 5837:2012, Trees in relation to design, demolition and construction – Recommendations. Services include tree surveys, tree constraints plans, tree protection plans, arboricultural impact assessments, arboricultural method statements and arboricultural supervision. This is a professional services requirement combining arboriculture, construction-related inspection and forest-sector planning. It is relevant to consultancies and land or countryside service businesses that assess trees and their constraints in relation to development, demolition and construction, prepare technical plans and assessments, and provide supervision during works. The council is the public-sector buyer and the requirement was arranged as a single service lot.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a below-threshold process using a framework agreement. Four suppliers were appointed jointly: G Trott Tree Consultancy Limited, Cura Terrae Land and Nature Limited, Glendale Countryside Limited and UA5 Ltd. The award value is £168,000 excluding VAT, or £201,600 including VAT. The award was made on 13 August 2026. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 30 August 2030, with a scheduled signature date of 30 August 2026. The award covers the single lot and is for services below the relevant threshold. The requirement was evaluated through the procurement process that led to appointment to the framework, although the published details do not state the individual evaluation weightings or scoring criteria.

This award identifies a four-year public-sector demand for specialist arboricultural advice supporting design, demolition and construction activity in the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole area. A credible competing supplier would need the technical capability to carry out professional tree surveys, produce tree constraints and protection plans, assess arboricultural impacts, write method statements and provide supervision on active projects. Practical understanding of BS 5837:2012 is central, as the requirement expressly covers its recommendations for trees in relation to development work. The appointed supplier group includes small and large businesses, indicating that both specialist consultancies and larger countryside or land-management providers can be relevant, provided they can deliver the full range of survey, assessment, planning and supervisory services at council scale.
