OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process is led by Forestry and Land Scotland, seeking bids for the "DNB Survey Framework," which falls under the services category, specifically for forestry health surveys across Scotland. The procurement stage is currently marked as "active" and the tender aligns with an open procedure. Key details include a contract value of £525,000, initiated on 17 May 2016, with an extension due until 30 March 2021 to accommodate delays stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic, which impacted seasonal requirements.

This opportunity provides a platform for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and larger firms experienced in forestry and environmental services to engage in public procurement. Companies specialising in tree health assessments or related environmental consultancy services will find this framework particularly appealing, as it addresses significant forestry health challenges vital for managing Scotland's national forest estate. Engaging in this tender could enhance visibility and establish long-term relationships with the contracting authority, resulting in valuable business growth potential.

DNB Survey - Lot 1

Four year Framework with 20 lots for tree health surveys, due to expire 22 May 2020. The organisation uses this Framework to purchase a range of tree health surveys that provide critical support to FLS management of the national forest estate. The procurement for a replacement framework/ contract has been delayed due to COVID 19 and FLS staff were unable to place call off contracts to meet their seasonal requirements during lock down. This Framework Agreement therefore needs to be extended to enable service provision for this year until the new agreement is in place, which is anticipated to be April 2021.
