The brief

Forestry England is seeking to engage with the market in relation to the provision of vegetation management services to support a national woodland creation programme funded by Defra through to 2029/30.

The requirement covers multiple sites across England (currently approximately 30), including both newly planted and established woodland, and includes activities such as mechanical and chemical weed control, row mowing, and invasive species management.

Forestry England is exploring options for a flexible, scalable delivery model (potentially via a framework or similar arrangement) to improve consistency and efficiency across sites.

The organisation is also interested in understanding market capability, capacity, and opportunities for innovation, including the use of automated or AI-enabled solutions.

This preliminary market engagement is intended to inform the development of the procurement strategy and future tender approach.
