## Summary

East Lothian Council is conducting a procurement process for the "Ash dieback survey project" aimed at identifying and assessing ash trees along the council's public roads network. The project falls under the services category in the agricultural and forestry industry, with a total contract value of £55,559, which was signed on 24 June 2022. The procurement method employed is an open procedure, and the tender was initiated as part of a thorough analysis to ensure community benefits through sustainable practices. The award criteria prioritise quality (40%) and price (60%).

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in forestry services and environmental assessments. Companies that can demonstrate relevant experience, capability, and the necessary compliance with insurance and financial requirements will be well-suited to participate. Specifically, businesses offering innovative tree management solutions, such as those using the TreeSmart Tree Management Software, will have a competitive edge. Engaging in this project can help such firms expand their market presence while contributing to community welfare through environmental protection efforts.
