    Brief

    Forestry England is procuring forest maintenance and ground preparation services across Yorkshire Forest District through a 4-year framework agreement. The opportunity is divided into two lots: Lot 1 covers ground preparation by scarifying (estimated 30-55 hectares annually, carried out in autumn) with a single supplier framework worth approximately £105,000. Lot 2 covers mechanised forest maintenance services including mulching, tree shearing, excavator and forwarder operation, and chainsaw services, with up to 2 suppliers selected and valued at approximately £300,000. The total contract value is approximately £405,000 over 4 years, with annual performance reviews and a mid-point pricing review (2+2 year structure). Successful contractors must be highly experienced in mechanised forest maintenance and scarifying operations, with proven experience working in heavily visited public areas. All work must comply with the UK Woodland Assurance Standard (UKWAS), Forest Industry Safety Accord (FISA) guidelines, Forestry England Health and Safety Policy, and all relevant environmental and health and safety legislation.
