This tender is part of the services industry, focusing on the maintenance and inspection of the council's extensive tree stock, which includes over 2 million trees across various locations in Newport, UK. Currently in the active tender stage, the submission deadline is set for 8 December 2021, following which the bid opening will occur on the same day. The procurement method used for this process is an open procedure, and interested suppliers can submit their proposals electronically via the eTenderwales portal. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in arboriculture, particularly those with expertise in tree consultancy and surgery. Companies that have qualified professionals capable of performing Visual Tree Assessments and various tree maintenance services will find this contract appealing. By joining the approved list, these contractors can potentially secure long-term work through a reliable local authority, thus contributing to business growth and stability in a sector focused on environment and public service. ## Notice Newport City Council is proud to own and maintain in excess of 2 million trees which includes over 185 hectares of mixed deciduous woodland. This includes various different Client areas where trees are present: eg Highways, Education, Parks, Woodlands and the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal etc. Newport City Council takes the care and responsibility of its trees very seriously to ensure that they are as healthy and safe for as long as possible as per the formerly adopted Newport City Council 2015 Tree Policy, supporting this is a raft of National and Local Polices to safeguard healthy tree stock. All Council tree stock is inspected by qualified and experienced Tree Consultants on a cyclical basis and subsequently the practical tree work is tendered out. Technical diagnostic work is also undertaken to trees to determine the most appropriate course of action on trees of sufficient value. Exacting standards of professionalism both by Tree Consultants and Tree Surgeons are expected and required, with the latter carrying out a broad spectrum of physical tree work - some of which is highly specialised in nature. In order to deliver this Service, an Approved List of Contractors is being implemented via consultation with Strategic Procurement and it will be complied and maintained in accordance with Newport City Council standing orders. This is the Round Two opportunity in order for any additional interested suppliers to apply to join the existing Approved List. Appointed suppliers, unless applying for an additional Lot, need not re-apply. NB: The Approved List was originally to be for the period 2020 to 2023. Due to the Covid Pandemic the evaluation was not completed until early 2021, and therefore the Approved List will now be for the period 1 April 2021 to 31 March 2025. ### Lot Information Tree Consultants The Council is looking for suitably qualified and established Arboricultural professionals to carry out Visual Tree Assessment (VTA) surveys by an NQF level 2 competent person of all trees; where this identifies defects, a VTA inspection by an NQF level 3 competent person identifying a reasonably practicable prioritised works program. Tree Surgeons The Council is looking for suitably qualified and experienced Tree Surgeons in order to carry out the necessary maintenance to the NCC owned tree stock.
