HCC Feb 2025 - The Provision of a Framework Agreement for Treework Services

Hertfordshire County Council (hereinafter referred to as the Council or HCC) is out to procurement for a Framework Agreement for the provision of a Treework Service. The Framework Agreement provides HCC and other bodies e.g. Housing Associations, with a professional arboriculture service covering all aspects of tree works in schools and other properties throughout Hertfordshire and the surrounding areas. Comprehensive surveys may also be occasionally required followed by detailed reports with prioritised recommendations. The delivery of the service is dependent on meeting the Council's requirements and may involve emergency works and the need for out of hours work. Further details of the requirement are in the Specification, Schedule 1 of the Framework Agreement document. Tenderers should be aware that due to the nature of the Services provided, any Framework Agreement formed as a result of this procurement process shall be executed as a deed. Tenderers should seek independent legal advice on the implications of this prior to submitting their Tender.
