Summary of the contracting process

Herefordshire Council commissioned tree surveying services for its first batch of tree surveys. The work is classified as surveying services and was delivered in Herefordshire. The requirement was procured as a single lot under an existing framework, with Treework Services Limited selected to carry it out. This is a council requirement for specialist assessment of trees, rather than tree maintenance or removal work. The procurement therefore concerns suppliers able to provide professional survey services in the local area and undertake the assessment work required by the council.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Treework Services Limited. It was run below the applicable threshold as a non-competitive award under a framework, using a selective method. The contract value was £61,812.90 excluding VAT (£74,175.48 including VAT). Services commenced on 31 August 2026, and the contract period ended on 13 October 2026; the council’s description says the contract was formally executed on 13 October 2026. The recorded contract signature date is 31 August 2026. One lot was awarded. The award record identifies surveying services as the contracted work; no separate evaluation criteria are recorded.

This award shows Herefordshire Council has bought tree survey services through a framework, at a scale suited to a specialist supplier rather than a large multi-service contract. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to demonstrate professional tree surveying capability, with enough capacity to deliver surveys across Herefordshire and work effectively through a framework arrangement. Treework Services Limited, the selected supplier, is recorded as an SME, showing that this requirement was delivered by a smaller business. Suppliers focused solely on arboricultural maintenance or tree removal would need to show relevant survey expertise to compete for comparable work. The requirement provides a clear indication of the council’s demand for standalone tree assessment services.
