Summary of the contracting process

Natural Resources Wales has awarded a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) contract for the provision of Direct Production Harvesting Services, encompassing activities such as felling, processing, and extraction of trees to roadside, compliant with NRW's timber specifications. The procurement process adhered to the Restricted Procedure guidelines under the Public Contract Regulations 2015. The DPS contract covers three distinct lots: Mid Wales, South Wales, and North Wales. The total estimated value of the contract is £36,000,000, with individual contracts signed on 9th May 2020 for Mid and South Wales and 11th February 2020 for North Wales. The awarded suppliers are responsible for providing services across various regions of Wales including manual felling, winch, banksmen provision, and mechanised mulching/vegetation management on a reactive basis as needed.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in forestry and environmental services, particularly those specialising in timber extraction, vegetation management, and related activities. The DPS framework offers contracts to both large and small enterprises, evidenced by the diverse range of suppliers including Euroforest Ltd, TW & GW EVANS LTD, and several SMEs. Such contracts enable businesses to expand their operations, contribute to sustainable forestry management, and engage in long-term partnerships with government bodies like Natural Resources Wales. Organisations equipped with the right expertise and resources, ready to adapt to both planned and urgent operational requirements, will find this procurement highly beneficial for business growth.
