The framework, valued between £360,000 and £480,000, is divided into four lots across two regional areas (Northern and Southern). Specific work packages include specialist and standard arboricultural tasks. The procurement, classified under forestry and horticultural services, is at the tender stage with a deadline for submissions on 16th September 2024. The contract will run from 1st November 2024 to 31st October 2027, targeting the England region within the United Kingdom. This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses with expertise in arboricultural and horticultural services, particularly those experienced in handling both standard and specialist tree works. Although tailored for larger enterprises, SMEs can also benefit from subcontracting opportunities within the framework’s extensive work packages. Engaging in this contract can enhance a company's portfolio with public sector projects and provide long-term business stability through a substantial, multi-year agreement with a reputable local authority like Cumberland Council. ## Notice Cumberland Council is seeking to appoint suitably qualified and experienced contractors to a framework agreement for arboricultural services on parks and green spaces in the district. The agreement will be divided into two areas, reflecting the extent of the district and also existing arrangements by which tree work is being undertaken. Within each area there will be a further sub-division to reflect standard tree works (most work undertaken) and specialist works, where officer discretion identifies a need for technical work on sensitive or vulnerable sites. The services have been divided into the following work packages (Lots): Northern Area Lot 1 (Specialist Arboricultural Work) Northern Area Lot 2 (Arboricultural Work) Southern Area Lot 1 (Specialist Arboricultural Work) Southern Area Lot 2 (Arboricultural Work) ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4efb792e-b91b-436a-a92c-8c61fa7a3f26 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 27 Aug 2024 | | Submission deadline | 16 Sep 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Nov 2024 - 31 Oct 2027 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £480,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CUMBERLAND COUNCIL | | Locality | CARLISLE | | Post town | Carlisle | | Postcode | CA1 1RD | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD1 Cumbria | | ITL 3 | TLD13 Cumberland | | Local authority | Cumberland | | Electoral ward | Castle | | Westminster constituency | Carlisle | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLH East (England), TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 77 - Agricultural, forestry, horticultural, aquacultural and apicultural services ### Codes - 77200000 - Forestry services - 77300000 - Horticultural services ## Release History - 27 Aug 2024 at 10:36 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4efb792e-b91b-436a-a92c-8c61fa7a3f26 - 16 Aug 2024 at 11:01 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b7848b66-b490-4e11-9dab-9388acdda505 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4efb792e-b91b-436a-a92c-8c61fa7a3f26 27th August 2024 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b7848b66-b490-4e11-9dab-9388acdda505 16th August 2024 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=1f886382-be5b-ef11-812e-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - https://www.cumberland.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
