United Kingdom-Oldbury: Tree-clearing services
Tree Maintenance Services and Arboricultural Services.
Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council (‘the Council’) invited interested suppliers (‘Tenderers’) to participate in a tender exercise in relation to the provision of Tree Maintenance Services and Arboricultural Services (‘Invitation to Tender’ or ‘ITT’).
The Council identified its requirement to establish a Framework Agreement (‘Contract’) to appoint suitably qualified and experienced Contractor's.
Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council (‘the Council’), under the care of the Council's Urban Forestry Unit deals with the inspection and maintenance of the Council's tree stock. These works are primarily on highways, parks and open spaces, although they do carry out work on all other Council land where trees are located at the request of the Land Manager.
Additional work is undertaken for the Neighbourhoods Directorate within the gardens of tenanted homes and sheltered accommodation, Sandwell Leisure Trust, Cultural Services, Sandwell Education Authority and Highways Maintenance. The Council does not assist with work on trees located on private land unless it is deemed to be dead, diseased or dangerous.
All trees that fall under the ownership or management of the Council are protected. Therefore, it is illegal for anyone other than, instructed and approved tree surgeons to prune, fell or carry out any form of works to these trees.

Responsive service delivery is required to undertake identified reactive and planned maintenance and Arboricultural services relating to trees and shrubs which fall under the Council's ownership or management, on an as and when required basis within the Borough of Sandwell.
