## Summary

The Westmorland and Furness Council has concluded the procurement for their Arboriculture Services Framework 2024 - 2028, focusing on highway verge and tree management to ensure safe highways. The procurement aimed at enhancing the local economy in Cumbria through job creation, training, and development opportunities. The contract value stands at £4,000,000 and covers a period from 1st June 2024 to 31st May 2028. The procurement process utilised an open procedure and has reached the award stage, with the final award being made on 28th June 2024.

This framework presents significant opportunities for business growth, particularly for companies specialising in forestry, horticulture, and related services. It is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as evidenced by the selection of several SMEs such as C Davidson Contractors Ltd, Cornthwaite Tree Care Ltd, Eden Woodland Consultants Ltd, and Greaves Tree Services Ltd as suppliers. Businesses involved in tree maintenance, felling, and managing storm damage or ash dieback would find this tender highly relevant and potentially lucrative for expanding their operational footprint in the Cumbria region.

## Notice

Highway verge and tree management is a key part of the Council's duty to maintain safe highways. Westmorland and Furness Council requires up to a maximum of six Suppliers for the provision of services for tree maintenance, felling, storm damage and works identified from the ash die back surveys. Through the Framework the Council is seeking to have a clear impact on the Cumbrian economy through job creation, training and development opportunities and development of the local supply chain.
