Summary of the contracting process

Natural Resources Wales commissioned scrub-removal works at Pyllau Hwyaid in Tywi Forest, as a call-off from its Peatlands Restoration Framework. The work forms part of peatland restoration and is located in Wales. It is a single-lot works requirement, with the procurement described as Lot 3 of the framework. The buyer is Natural Resources Wales, the Welsh public body responsible for the natural environment. The requirement is specifically for scrub removal rather than a general forestry or land-management service, so it is most relevant to contractors equipped to carry out vegetation clearance as part of habitat or peatland restoration work. The award identifies the delivery location at country level only; Pyllau Hwyaid, Tywi Forest is the named worksite.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to G T Jones Contracting Ltd. The award is active, and the contract is also active and signed. The contract was signed on 11 August 2026, with work scheduled from 5 October to 20 November 2026 and a maximum extent to 31 January 2027. Its value is £33,810 excluding VAT (£40,572 including VAT). The award was made through a selective, below-threshold call-off from an existing framework, without a further competitive process. The procurement covers one lot. No award evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements are stated in the available process details.

For contractors considering similar future work for Natural Resources Wales, this award shows demand for targeted scrub removal within peatland restoration, procured through the buyer’s established restoration framework. A credible supplier would need practical capacity to mobilise a site team for a defined, short-duration vegetation-clearance package at a named forest site, and experience delivering scrub-removal works in a restoration setting. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that this scale of call-off can be delivered by a smaller contractor, although the award does not set out specific accreditations, equipment, staffing levels or technical standards. Businesses already positioned to undertake vegetation management and habitat-restoration work in Wales are the closest fit. Familiarity with framework call-off arrangements would also be commercially relevant for competing for this buyer’s comparable requirements.
