## Summary

The procurement process involves the Forestry Commission, acting through Forestry England, which is seeking a contractor for the construction of a horizontal well and outfall pipe as part of the Woodside Development in Cheshire. The project, categorized under foundation work and water-well drilling, has a contract value of £234,178.56 and is currently in the award stage following a completed tender process. The tender period ended on 7th October 2021, with the contract set to start on 8th October 2021 and conclude by 31st July 2022.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) specialising in construction and civil engineering, particularly those with expertise in water management and irrigation systems. Businesses that can demonstrate experience in similar foundation works and are equipped to handle projects involving environmental considerations will be well-suited to compete for future opportunities arising from this initiative, which aims to support the planting and harvesting of millions of trees at the Woodside Nursery site.

## Notice

These works are for the first stage of developing land at Woodside Nursery (Cheshire) into a forest nursery. The horizontal well is to be a water source for irrigation. The outfall is to accommodate pumping test water and potential future field drainage to facilitate the growth and harvesting of several million trees by draining excess water from land into a neighbouring lake plus allow interception of drainage water for storage (to be installed at a later stage). Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
