## Summary

The procurement process, initiated by the Met Office, involved a tender for Forestry Services, aimed at managing woodland near the Met Office's radar site in the South West of England. The procurement method employed was a single tender action, considering it was below the threshold, with a total contract value of £18,524 GBP.
