UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Natural England is procuring peatland restoration works on lowland former agricultural land at Moss Side Farm. The requirement is a land and environmental restoration service, involving work to restore peatland rather than the supply of goods or construction of a conventional building. The procurement is intended for contractors able to carry out agricultural, forestry, horticultural or related land-management services, as reflected by the stated classification. The buying organisation is Natural England, a central government public authority. Delivery is in the United Kingdom, at the Moss Side Farm site identified in the opportunity. The work is presented as a single requirement covering the restoration activity, with the specification and Request for Quotation setting out the detailed practical requirements, deliverables and working arrangements for the site.

The process reached tender: Natural England invited quotations through a below-threshold open competition. Suppliers were required to submit a quotation meeting the Request for Quotation requirements, with responses sent by email by 12 noon on 28 September 2026. Clarification questions were also submitted by email, with questions and answers potentially circulated to all tenderers unless commercially sensitive. The contract is scheduled to run from 12 October 2026 to 31 January 2027. Its estimated value is £30,000 excluding VAT, or £36,000 including VAT. There is one lot. The award basis is set out in full in the Request for Quotation, rather than in the procurement record itself. The tender is below the applicable threshold and is not divided into multiple lots.

This opportunity suits small and medium-sized businesses with practical experience in peatland restoration and the management of lowland former agricultural land. Contractors should be able to plan and deliver environmental land-restoration works at a named farm site, follow a technical specification, and provide a compliant quotation against the buyer’s requirements. Relevant capability is likely to include agricultural or land-management operations, environmental restoration methods and the ability to coordinate work across the scheduled contract period. Suppliers should be prepared to demonstrate that they can meet the specification and complete the required works within the stated delivery arrangements. The single-lot structure may suit a contractor able to provide the full restoration service directly, or a suitably capable specialist working with delivery partners where permitted by the quotation requirements.
