Summary of the contracting process

Natural Resources Wales commissioned conifer removal at Moel yr Henfaes, within the Berwyn Site of Special Scientific Interest. The work is a forestry service, with agricultural services also classified in the procurement. It was let as a call-off from the buyer’s Arboriculture, Chainsaw and Tree Safety framework, so the requirement sat within an established specialist framework rather than a standalone open tender. The delivery location is in Wales; the named site is Moel yr Henfaes. The work concerns removing conifers from this protected landscape. The buyer is Natural Resources Wales, the public body responsible for the procurement.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Natural Resources Wales used a competitive, selective below-threshold call-off under its framework. One lot was awarded to Forest Tree Surgery and Grounds Maintenance Ltd. The contract was signed on 11 September 2026 and runs from 1 October 2026 to 29 January 2027. Its value is £39,980 excluding VAT, or £47,976 including VAT. The call-off followed a framework competition; the procurement data does not set out separate evaluation criteria for this award. The awarded supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise. The award relates to the conifer removal requirement at Moel yr Henfaes.

This award shows that Natural Resources Wales buys targeted conifer removal through its arboriculture, chainsaw and tree safety framework, with a requirement focused on a named site in a protected landscape. A credible competitor for a comparable future requirement would need to be capable of delivering tree and forestry operations safely and effectively in a sensitive site setting, and of meeting the buyer’s framework conditions. The selected supplier’s work spans tree surgery and grounds maintenance, indicating that relevant practical site-management capability may support delivery. Suppliers should assess whether their forestry and chainsaw expertise, operational capacity and experience working in protected landscapes fit this type of focused removal contract. The route used here favoured suppliers already appointed to the relevant framework.
