## Summary

The procurement process titled "SC22209 - KCC Tree Scheme 2022" is being conducted by Kent County Council, aiming to supply approximately 1,000 bundles of bare root whips for the 2022/23 planting season. The project is classified under the agricultural and forestry industry, with a total estimated contract value of £40,000. The tender is currently in the open stage, with submissions due by 12:00 on 8th July 2022. The contract period is set to commence on 20th September 2022 and will conclude on 28th June 2023, with delivery addresses across England.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for nurseries and businesses specialising in agricultural supply or forestry services to expand their operations. Companies that can provide sustainable products, such as biodegradable tree guards or canes alongside the whips, will be particularly well-suited to compete. The open procurement method allows a wide range of suppliers, including SMEs, to participate, thereby fostering competition and potential growth in the sector.

## Notice

Kent County Council are looking for a supplier to supply approximately 1,000 bundles of 10, 20, and 30 bare root whips, which will need to be supplied in the 2022/23 planting season. An estimate calculation for the total maximum trees that could be procured within budget would be 20,000. In addition to the whips, biodegradable or plastic-free tree guards or spirals will need to be supplied, as well as stakes or canes. We are therefore seeking responses from nurseries to supply these trees in line with the requirements of this tender.
