## Summary

The Forestry Commission bought road haulage to move roundwood timber from sites across Kielder Forest to A W Jenkinson Ltd in Cramlington. The work serves the North England Forest District and involves transporting harvested timber from forest sites to the named destination. The requirement is a specialist timber-transport service rather than general freight: suppliers need to handle roundwood and manage collections from multiple locations within Kielder Forest for delivery to Cramlington.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. One lot was awarded to SGS Timber Haulage Limited. The contract was signed on 1 April 2026 and runs from 1 April to 30 June 2026. Its value is £60,480 excluding VAT (£72,576 including VAT). The procurement was described as below threshold; the specific procedure was not identified. The published outcome records one service award for road transport. No evaluation criteria or bidder eligibility requirements are set out in the available process details.

This award shows demand from the Forestry Commission for a timber-haulage operator able to collect roundwood across Kielder Forest and deliver it to a timber company in Cramlington. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need suitable vehicles and equipment for roundwood, the operational capacity to serve dispersed forest sites, and dependable scheduling and delivery coordination. Experience in timber haulage and familiarity with the practical demands of moving timber from forest locations would be directly relevant. The award went to a small or medium-sized supplier, showing that this work was delivered by an SME; the requirement was a focused, single-lot service rather than a multi-lot programme.
