## Summary

The public procurement process for Arboricultural Maintenance Services is being carried out by Rochdale Boroughwide Housing Limited (RBH) in Rochdale, England. The procurement initiative is classified under tree-maintenance services, with a total contract value of £200,000. This tender is at the award stage, having been published on 12th November 2019, with the main contract period commencing on 20th January 2020 and concluding on 19th January 2022. The open procedure was used for this procurement, which includes multiple lots, although Lot 1 will be awarded to a single supplier to handle the majority of planned works.

This tender presents significant business opportunities for companies specialising in arboricultural services, particularly those capable of providing comprehensive maintenance and emergency response for trees. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as they can potentially fulfil the requirements set out by RBH and effectively manage both scheduled and emergency works within the specified operational hours. Businesses focusing on tree care, including tree pruning, stump removal, and emergency services, would find themselves well-suited to compete for this contract.

## Notice

RBH has commissioned the survey of all its tree stock, and is currently running at 6500 identified trees. We now require the provision of a fully comprehensive Arboricultural Maintenance Service for all our managed tree stock. This will include, but is not limited to, tree stump removal, temporary re-instatement of tree pits, tree pruning and felling. This will be set up as an RBH Framework as there are multiple lots. However, we wish to contract with a single supplier for Lot 1, which will fulfil the bulk of the work, the planned work. There are two further lots for the provision of Emergency Arboricultural Services both out-of-hours and during working hours in respect of any tree deemed an emergency. The award of contract to suppliers for Lots 2 & 3 may be given to the winning bidder for Lot 1, but equally they may not be. RBH does not want a situation where the need for a contractor to attend an emergency call out, negatively affects any planned works being carried out at the time of the call out. All works to be carried out on RBH public areas and individual gardens front and rear. SCOPE: RBH require a framework of suppliers or individual supplier to deliver a comprehensive Arboricultural service for all our identified tree stock. This framework includes a provision for day to day and out of hour's emergency tree services. Normal working hours are 7am to 7pm Monday to Friday. These are the hours for any in -hour's emergency works. The emergency out of hours work is between 7pm and 7am Monday to Friday and Weekends require 24 hour cover. Trees have been categorized according to size, type of work required and priority for works which will be provided by RBH in bundles of works to be completed.
