## Summary

National Highways has awarded a contract titled "SEDPS-NH-0024-Management of 3M Trees" under the industry category of Tree-maintenance services, with the aim of advancing its Net Zero Highways Plan 2030. The project involves the management and planting of an additional 3 million trees, which are to be planted outside the currently mandated environmental mitigations by NH, spanning regions including the United Kingdom, British Oversea Territories, the Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Europe, and the Rest of the World. The procurement was conducted through a selective method, utilising a dynamic purchasing system, and has recently moved to the award stage with The Tree Council being chosen as the supplier. The contract term is set between 5th November 2025 and 31st March 2026, with an awarded contract value of £389,550.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in environmental management and tree maintenance to collaborate with a national authority like National Highways. Companies with a background in large-scale environmental projects could find this project particularly beneficial for strengthening their portfolio. Additionally, smaller enterprises and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to partake due to the tender's suitability criteria that promote participation from SMEs and VCSEs. By entering into this contract, businesses may enhance their market visibility and gain invaluable experience working on national infrastructure projects, potentially unlocking further opportunities in similar high-profile public procurement initiatives.

## Notice

National Highways (NH) has committed to planting additional trees, over the course of three years, the initiative will contribute towards NH's Net Zero Highways Plan 2030. To count towards the target, these trees must be planted in 'addition' to any trees required as part of National Highways' environmental mitigation. To ensure the project's success, National Highways is looking to appoint an experienced service provider, ideally with previous experience of delivering similar projects to National Highways or other national infrastructure organisations to oversee the administration of the project in relation to the trees being planted outside National Highways' land.
