UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Herefordshire Council procured tree-cutting services to facilitate improvements to bus stops. The work supports the council’s bus stop improvement programme and covers tree works. Delivery is in Herefordshire, England. The requirement is for practical tree services linked to transport infrastructure, rather than general bus-stop construction or passenger transport services.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to AAT Tree Services and Consultancy. It was a below-threshold award made under a framework, using a selective procedure. The council awarded one lot for tree-cutting services. The contract was signed on 1 October 2026 and runs from 1 October to 30 November 2026. Its value is £29,600 excluding VAT (£35,520 including VAT). The award is active. The published procurement information does not state a separate evaluation basis or criteria.

This award demonstrates demand from Herefordshire Council for tree-cutting work that enables bus stop improvements, delivered through a framework route. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to show the practical capability and capacity to carry out tree works safely and effectively in locations associated with public transport infrastructure. Relevant experience coordinating site work around existing roads, bus stops and public access would help demonstrate suitability. The selected supplier is a small business, showing that this requirement was served by an SME; businesses of a comparable scale with suitable tree services capability may find this buyer’s requirement relevant. The work is specifically tree cutting for bus stop improvements, so general arboricultural services without a clear fit to that purpose may be less relevant.
