## Summary

The London Borough of Hillingdon is seeking to enhance its urban landscape through a recently awarded contract for tree maintenance services, with a value of £1,168,770. This initiative falls within the works category and is located in London, United Kingdom. The procurement process followed an open method, concluding the tender period on 12th June 2019, and the contract commenced on 8th October 2019, running until 7th October 2022. The awarded contract has been assigned to Red Squirrel Tree Surgery Ltd., which is responsible for various maintenance tasks, including tree surveying, pruning, and removal responsibilities, particularly in remote areas with limited access.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the landscaping and tree maintenance sector. Companies specialising in arboricultural services, particularly those capable of performing comprehensive tree inspections and maintenance, would be well-positioned to compete for similar upcoming contracts. With the potential for further division of work into designated areas within the borough, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find advantageous opportunities for collaboration and growth in the thriving urban environment of Hillingdon.

## Notice

The contract will be for the provision of tree maintenance services within the boundaries of the London Borough of Hillingdon. The service will involve all aspects of maintenance of Council trees including (but not limited to): tree surveying, limb/branch removal, pruning, removal of suckers and epitomic shoots, crown lifting, thinning and reduction, re-pollarding, removal of deadwood, felling stump removal of soft and hard areas, poisoning of stumps and roots, root pruning, tree inspection, climbing inspection and possibly tree planting. There may be possible tree removals from lake/rivers in remote areas with limited vehicle access. Due to the volume of work, the London Borough of Hillingdon may divide the Borough into North and South with two contractors operating within each divided areas.
