UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

South Gloucestershire Council bought tree-planting sundries for new woodland creation at Leigh Farm. The goods include biodegradable tree guards, untreated support stakes and biodegradable mulch mats. This is a supply requirement for woodland planting rather than a works or planting-services contract. Delivery is in South Gloucestershire, within the council’s area. The council is the buyer and the requirement centres on materials used to protect and support young trees and to mulch around them. Suppliers whose range covers these biodegradable planting products and untreated stakes are the closest fit. The procurement was arranged as a single lot, covering the listed tree-planting supplies for the woodland project.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to TUDOR (UK) LTD. South Gloucestershire Council used a below-threshold limited competition. The award is active, and the contract was signed on 22 September 2026. Its stated period runs from 22 September 2026 to 31 March 2027. The contract value is £93,136 excluding VAT (£111,763.20 including VAT). The procurement comprised one lot. The supplied information identifies the goods and the successful supplier but does not set out an evaluation scoring basis or participation requirements. The award relates to tree-planting sundries for the Leigh Farm woodland creation project.

This award demonstrates demand from South Gloucestershire Council for practical supplies supporting new woodland creation, including biodegradable tree guards and mulch mats alongside untreated support stakes. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to source or manufacture this mix of planting consumables, meet the specified material characteristics and supply the quantities needed for a defined woodland project. The buyer selected a supplier through limited competition below the procurement threshold, so suppliers serving public-sector buyers should be equipped to respond to a competitive, buyer-led sourcing process. The contract was awarded to an SME, showing that a smaller supplier can serve this requirement. The opportunity is most relevant to environmental-products distributors, tree-planting suppliers and manufacturers with reliable stock and delivery capability in South Gloucestershire.
