This procurement process is currently in the planning stage, seeking insight from potential providers for groundwork services and environmental assessments related to the White Rose Forest Partnership, which encompasses North and West Yorkshire. The deadline for responses is set for 9 February 2022, with the contract period commencing shortly thereafter, from 10 to 11 February 2022. The procurement falls under environmental services, notably including categories such as landscaping work and environmental impact assessments. This tender presents a unique opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) to engage with Kirklees Council and contribute to community forestry initiatives. Businesses with expertise in environmental services, landscaping, and ecological assessments would be well-suited to participate. This engagement could help companies enhance their visibility and credibility within the ecological sector, ultimately fostering growth through collaboration with a significant local authority and numerous partnership stakeholders. ## Notice Kirklees Council are seeking information from providers with the ability to perform groundwork services and/or environment surveys to inform future procurement exercises in relation to the White Rose Forest Partnership. The Questionnaire can be accessed using this link https://forms.office.com/r/3GF6SJix0J Kirklees Council is the accountable body for the White Rose Forest (WRF) partnership. The Partnership is a local authority based joint venture agreement with 36 signatories including DEFRA organisations, national, regional, local charities, and social enterprises. The joint venture covers North and West Yorkshire. The WRF is a community forest and looks to promote the expansion of community forestry across the region. The WRF Delivery Pathway (DP) offers a bespoke service to landowners, their agents and WRF Partners (signatories to the WRF joint venture) to facilitate the process from initial interest though to delivery of new woodland. This process does not constitute a formal tender or other competitive bidding process and will not result in the letting of a Contract. The Council are using this process solely to test the market to gather information and ascertain the level of interest in this service. There are therefore no formal criteria which we will use to judge your responses, and it is not the intention to provide any feedback. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7083594b-2c1a-4536-8a48-b56c1cb1186d | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not applicable | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 26 Jan 2022 | | Submission deadline | 9 Feb 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 10 Feb 2022 - 11 Feb 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | 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 | KIRKLEES COUNCIL | | Locality | HUDDERSFIELD | | Post town | Huddersfield | | Postcode | HD1 2TA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE4 West Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE44 Calderdale and Kirklees | | Local authority | Kirklees | | Electoral ward | Newsome | | Westminster constituency | Huddersfield | | Delivery location | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 03 - Agricultural, farming, fishing, forestry and related products - 45 - Construction work - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 77 - Agricultural, forestry, horticultural, aquacultural and apicultural services - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services ### Codes - 03121100 - Live plants, bulbs, roots, cuttings and slips - 03450000 - Tree-nursery products - 45112700 - Landscaping work - 71313400 - Environmental impact assessment for construction - 77310000 - Planting and maintenance services of green areas - 90700000 - Environmental services - 90711000 - Environmental impact assessment other than for construction - 90711300 - Environmental indicators analysis other than for construction - 90711400 - Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) services other than for construction - 90711500 - Environmental monitoring other than for construction - 90713000 - Environmental issues consultancy services ## Release History - 26 Jan 2022 at 17:31 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7083594b-2c1a-4536-8a48-b56c1cb1186d ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7083594b-2c1a-4536-8a48-b56c1cb1186d 26th January 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=42881&B=UK Additional data - https://uk.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/104104 User / Company - https://forms.office.com/r/3GF6SJix0J Link to the questionnaire ## Notice URLs - http://www.kirklees.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
