Summary of the contracting process

Hertsmere Borough Council is buying arboriculture services, covering tree work and tree surveys across the whole borough. Work is required in parks, open spaces, amenity areas, closed cemeteries and other council-owned sites. The contractor will use the council’s Ezytreev system to record survey data, track work progress and maintain work histories. The service is relevant to arboriculture and tree-care businesses able to undertake both surveying and practical tree work across a range of public sites in Hertsmere, Hertfordshire.

The council invited tenders through an open procedure. The enquiry deadline was 23 October 2026 at 12:00, and the bid submission deadline was 6 November 2026 at 12:00. The council planned to complete its award decision by 15 January 2027. The contract is for four years, from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2031. Its estimated value is £800,000 excluding VAT (£960,000 including VAT). There is one lot. Bids are evaluated on price (45%), quality (45%) and social value (10%).

This opportunity suits arboriculture contractors with the staff and operational capacity to provide tree surveys and carry out tree work across multiple types of council-owned sites throughout a borough. Suppliers must be familiar with Ezytreev and able to use it to enter survey information, record work progress and maintain work histories; they must also have the hardware, software and licences needed to operate the system. The combined emphasis on price, service quality and social value means bidders should be able to set out both a competitive delivery approach and the quality of their proposed service, alongside their social-value offer. Teams able to coordinate surveying and practical works across parks, open spaces, amenity areas, cemeteries and other council sites are well placed to respond.
