## Summary

The Bournemouth Borough Council is conducting a public procurement process titled "Supply of Timber for Groyne Replacement Programme 2017/18," which falls under the forestry and logging products category. The procurement is currently in the award stage as of May 3, 2017, and is scheduled to culminate in a contract period from June 1, 2017, to February 28, 2018. The total contract value is approximately £700,000, with suppliers required to meet strict sourcing guidelines compliant with the UK Government's Timber Procurement Policy. The tender period for submission was open until March 31, 2017, and suppliers needed to submit their responses electronically through the designated eTendering system based in Bournemouth, South West England.

This tender provides significant opportunities for SMEs involved in timber supply and forestry services to compete for a major local council project, particularly those capable of delivering TPP-compliant timber products. Businesses that specialise in forestry, timber sourcing, or logistics would be well-suited to respond, particularly those looking to expand their operations in public sector contracts. The distribution of the requirements across nine separate lots also allows for more agile suppliers to participate effectively, increasing their chances of securing a contract within this extensive procurement process.

## Notice

Bournemouth Borough Council requires the Supply of Timber to be used in the Council's Groyne Replacement Programme in the winter of 2017/18. Timber groynes on Bournemouth's beach are subject to high loading forces, abrasion and degradation by marine borers, specifically gribble. There are limited timbers that are suitable for use in the groyne structure. All timber will be supplied compliant with the UK Government Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) publication 'Timber Procurement Policy (TPP), Timber Procurement Advice Note, Sixth Edition, March 2016'. All Timber to be supplied must come from a TPP-compliant source. The Council has split the requirements for the 2017/18 supply of timber into nine lots.
