This is a contract for winter tree pollarding work scheduled for 2026. A local authority or public body needs a contractor to prune and maintain trees during the winter months using the pollarding technique (cutting back branches to encourage new growth).
Requirements
- No specific requirements listed in the notice — check the full tender documents for qualifications, insurance, and arboricultural certifications needed.
Key Tasks & Deliverables
- Carry out winter pollarding on trees (exact number and locations to be confirmed in full documents)
- Complete work during winter 2026 season
- Ensure compliance with arboricultural best practice and safety standards
How to Read This Tender
- 1This refers to a 'DPS' (Dynamic Purchasing System) — a pre-approved list of suppliers. Check if you're already on it or need to register first.
- 2The '2026' date is important — this is future work, so you need to plan ahead and reserve capacity.
- 3Look for the detailed specification in the full tender documents to find: exact tree locations, number of trees, size/type of trees, and specific pollarding standards required.
- 4Check what 'winter' means exactly — typically November to March, but confirm the exact start and end dates.
- 5The reference 'DPS1 1373' is the unique tender ID — use this to find and download the full documents from the relevant portal (likely your local council's website or Contracts Finder).
Tips for Small Businesses
- Tree work often requires certified arborists or operatives with formal qualifications (like Lantra or NPTC certificates). Budget for staff training and certifications now if you don't have them.
- This type of work is suitable for subcontracting or partnership with established groundworks/landscaping firms if you're new to tree work — consider a joint bid.
- Check the social value scoring criteria in the full documents — councils often award extra points for local employment, apprenticeships, or environmental practices. Emphasize these if you have them.
