The requirement falls within agricultural, forestry and related land-management services. The work is categorised as services and is intended to restore peatland on land previously used for arable farming, requiring practical delivery in the North West of England. The opportunity is a single requirement rather than a multi-lot programme. It will suit organisations whose work covers peatland, habitat or wetland restoration, agricultural land management, ecological improvement or closely related environmental services. The buying organisation is Natural England, a central government public authority. Suppliers should assess whether their operational coverage and experience extend to restoration work on former arable land and whether they can deliver the specified outcomes at the Moss Side Farm site. The process has reached tender: Natural England invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Bidders must submit a quotation addressing the Request for Quotation and use the accompanying response documents. Electronic submission is not allowed. Offers had to reach the buyer by 9am on 28 September 2026. Clarification questions were to be sent by email, with questions and answers potentially circulated to all tenderers unless commercially sensitive. The contract period was set from 12 October 2026 to 31 January 2027. The estimated value is £12,000 excluding VAT and £50,000 including VAT. There is one lot, with the full award criteria set out in the RFQ. Participation is reserved for suppliers located in the UK. This opportunity is aimed at UK-based suppliers able to carry out practical peatland restoration on lowland former arable land. Relevant businesses may include environmental contractors, peatland and wetland restoration specialists, habitat restoration companies, ecological land-management firms and agricultural contractors with suitable restoration capability. Experience of working on previously cultivated land, managing ground conditions, protecting or improving habitat, and delivering restoration measures would be directly relevant to the requirement. Suppliers should have the staff, equipment, site-management arrangements and environmental working practices needed to complete restoration works at a farm site. The procurement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so it may be accessible to specialist SMEs as well as larger environmental or land-management contractors with the necessary practical capacity. ## Notice Peatland restoration works on lowland ex arable land ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/083534-2026 | | Notice type | UK4 - Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Below threshold - open competition | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 3 Sep 2026 | | Submission deadline | 28 Sep 2026 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 12 Oct 2026 - 31 Jan 2027 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £12,000 | | Lots value | £12,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | Natural England | | Locality | LONDON | | Postcode area | South West London | | Postcode | SW1P 4DF | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | St James's | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 77 - Agricultural, forestry, horticultural, aquacultural and apicultural services ### Codes - 77000000 - Agricultural, forestry, horticultural, aquacultural and apicultural services ## Release History - 3 Sep 2026 at 14:46 - TenderUpdate - UK4 - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/083534-2026 - 2 Sep 2026 at 13:05 - Tender - UK4 - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/083044-2026 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/083534-2026 3rd September 2026 - Tender notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/083044-2026 2nd September 2026 - Tender notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/A-21792 RFQ - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/A-21793 Order Form - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/A-21794 Commercial Response Template - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/A-21795 - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/A-21894 Clarification to Bidders Questions ## Notice URLs - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
