## Summary

The public procurement process for the removal of trees at Nova Primary Academy is being undertaken by PKAT, based in Peterborough, United Kingdom. This tender is active and pertains to the category of forestry services, with a focus on tree-maintenance. The key location for the contract is within the UK, specifically at Nova Primary Academy close to the A47 road. The procurement stage is currently at the tender phase, with the deadline for submission set for 10th February 2026. Businesses interested in participating are encouraged to arrange site visits by contacting the provided email. The procurement follows an open method and is advertised under a below-threshold open competition framework.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in forestry and tree-maintenance services, especially those capable of addressing urgent safety concerns associated with failing trees. Given the requirement for qualified suppliers to carry out both removal and preparatory inspection work, companies with solid credentials in arboriculture and safety compliance would be well-suited to bid. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, with the tender accommodating electronic submissions. The contract, valued at approximately £8,000-£9,600, presents potential growth opportunities for businesses looking to expand their service offerings within the public sector.

## Notice

Keys Academies Trust is seeking quotations from suitably qualified suppliers for urgent tree works on the Nova Primary Academy site. A large poplar tree has failed at the root plate and is now leaning into a neighbouring tree. Due to the immediate risk, a price is requested for the safe removal of two poplar trees. In the same area, there are a further three to four poplar trees with identified health and safety concerns. These trees are located close to areas accessed by members of the public and adjacent to the A47, which forms part of the high-speed road network. A quotation is therefore also requested for a full inspection of these trees, together with recommendations and any necessary remedial works to mitigate risk. Site visits can be arranged to view the area and the work required by emailing bmaguire@keystrust.org. The quotation should include proposed timescales, any traffic management requirements, and confirmation of relevant qualifications and insurance.
