## Summary

The public procurement process, initiated by South Lanarkshire Council, pertains to the tender titled "Supply and Delivery of Christmas Trees 2022." This contract falls within the goods category, specifically under housing and community amenities, and is based in South Lanarkshire, UK. The procurement process utilised was a selective method, following a restricted procedure. The award was granted on 30th May 2022, with trees required to be delivered to eight locations throughout November 2022. The overall contract value amounts to £65,207, and the delivery locations are all situated within South Lanarkshire.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in horticulture and landscaping, as well as local suppliers of Christmas trees. Companies that offer sustainable tree sourcing or have the capacity for scaled deliveries would be well-positioned to compete in future tenders like this, especially given the current pressures on the supply chain for Christmas trees. The emphasis on sourcing from local or limited suppliers indicates potential for businesses that can meet specific supply requirements to thrive in this niche market.

## Notice

The Council has an annual requirement for the Supply and Delivery of Christmas Trees. The Christmas Trees are required to be delivered to eight locations within South Lanarkshire throughout November 2022.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

South Lanarkshire Council awarded a Negotiated Contract to Elveden Farms Ltd. The award of this contract under the Negotiated Tendering Procedure can be justified for the following reason: The supplies can be supplied by only one suitable supplier as competition is absent for technical reasons and no alternative or substitute exists and the absence of competition is not the result of an artificial narrowing down of the parameters of the procurement. The supply market of Christmas Trees has been limited over previous years due to shortages of trees being available which has created an added pressure on the supply chain with each local authority purchasing trees on an annual basis. The commencement date of this contract was May 2022 and will continue until December 2022.
