The work covers activities identified in an independent tree survey carried out in July 2026, with the successful contractor required to complete the scheduled works in accordance with the specification and work schedule. The contract is classified as works in the forestry and related land-management sector. Delivery will take place at the council’s sites in Southwater, including locations identified on accompanying maps covering the north, central and south areas. This opportunity is therefore relevant to tree surgery, arboricultural and forestry contractors able to work across multiple parish open-space and woodland locations. The process reached the tender stage: Southwater Parish Council invited offers through an open procedure below the threshold. Tender submissions were due by 29 September 2026 at 9:00am. The contract period is 26 November 2026 to 28 February 2027. Its estimated value is between £15,000 and £45,000, both in GBP. The procurement covers the works scheduled by the July 2026 tree survey and set out in the Invitation to Tender, including the accompanying schedule, specification, maps and map addendum. The requirement is presented as a single works contract rather than separate lots. The council has identified the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. This opportunity suits established arboricultural, tree surgery and forestry businesses with the practical capability to deliver scheduled tree works in open spaces and woodland. Suppliers should be able to interpret an independent tree survey, work from a detailed schedule and specification, and use site maps to plan and complete tasks across several locations. The contract is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to smaller specialist contractors as well as larger tree-work firms with appropriate teams and equipment. Businesses with experience managing planned woodland or public open-space works, coordinating activity across multiple sites and delivering work to a defined technical specification are well placed to compete. ## Notice Southwater Parish Council owns and operates various open spaces and woodland across the Parish of Southwater. It is the intention to undertake a contract for the works identified as scheduled in the independent Tree Survey conducted in July 2026. The successful contractor will be responsible for carrying out the works to the specification outlined in the documents forming part of the Invitation to Tender. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/bdbd8056-d9b5-43f0-99c2-6465b6032326 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 17 Aug 2026 | | Submission deadline | 29 Sep 2026 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 26 Nov 2026 - 28 Feb 2027 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £45,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | Southwater Parish Council | | Locality | HORSHAM | | Postcode area | Redhill | | Postcode | RH13 9LA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ2 Surrey, East and West Sussex | | ITL 3 | TLJ28 West Sussex (North East) | | Local authority | Horsham | | Electoral ward | Southwater South & Shipley | | Westminster constituency | Horsham | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 03 - Agricultural, farming, fishing, forestry and related products ### Codes - 03000000 - Agricultural, farming, fishing, forestry and related products ## Release History - 17 Aug 2026 at 15:12 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/bdbd8056-d9b5-43f0-99c2-6465b6032326 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/bdbd8056-d9b5-43f0-99c2-6465b6032326 17th August 2026 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/58cf0ec1-f921-406d-8db8-d7378dae5964 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/9014a3db-2040-4688-b7bc-fa3ee9bdabd8 Schedule of Work and Specification of Work - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/339296c3-6cdd-4f36-b511-a492e60933f9 Map - 3 and 12 Months A3 North - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/612600fa-417f-4c79-85dc-3db8ffe69a86 Map - 3 and 12 Months A3 Central - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/00a75ecb-7eab-4de7-b499-c2bb14254294 Map 3 and 12 Months A3 South - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/64ac2e47-521e-41cd-97c5-c8f724f94a92 Addendum to Maps ## Notice URLs - http://www.southwater-pc.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
