## Summary

The Forestry Commission is currently inviting tenders for the "Woodlands for Water Project" aimed at enhancing woodland creation in target areas across Yorkshire and the North East of England. This opportunity is classified under 'Forest sectoral planning services' and has a total budget of £25,000. The procurement process is in the Tender stage, with submissions open until 18th September 2017. The contract period is set to begin on 1st October 2017 and will last until 31st March 2020. Interested parties are encouraged to submit their applications in alignment with the provided guidelines.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in forestry and woodland advisory services, particularly those who are experienced in assisting landowners with Countryside Stewardship Scheme applications. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in environmental consultancy or land management would be well-suited to compete for this contract, as the Forestry Commission is seeking multiple advisors to cover designated geographic areas, ensuring a diverse range of skills and capabilities across the region.

## Notice

The purpose of this invitation to quote is to invite expressions of interest from suitably qualified, skilled and experienced forestry and woodland advisors to provide landowners with support in preparing Countryside Stewardship (CS) Scheme applications for woodland creation in Woodland for Water target areas across Yorkshire and the North East of England. In turn the Forestry Commission, in partnership with the Environment Agency, shall provide payment in the form of a Woodlands for Water Planning Grant Payment on receipt of acceptable CS applications. We are seeking to appoint advisors that will collectively cover the priority areas across the whole of Yorkshire and North East England. But please note that unlike in previous years there may be more than one advisor covering a geographic area and the EA/ FC Priority Sub Catchments areas for Yorkshire may increase.
