Tender description

Framework contract for the supply of the services to operate, transport and store NRW’s South Wales Pisten Bulley Wetland Harvester machine Lot 1: NRW is seeking to award a framework for the supply of the services to operate, transport and store NRW-owned South Wales Pisten Bulley Wetland Harvester machine. Operation includes the mowing of various project sites around mid and south Wales and the daily/weekly upkeep and cleaning to ensure the effective and safe running of the machine. The purpose of the requirement is to enable NRW to carry out conservation mowing on various peatlands sites including transition mire or quaking bogs which demands very low ground pressure machinery. A key site will be Crymlyn Bog SAC (East Swansea) where the PistenBulley machine will play a key role in the restoration works - the control of a dominant plant species: Purple moor grass (Molinea caerulea) along with some sedge and other biomass. The PistenBulley will also be used on other project sites across mid and South Wales to bring sites into better management, enabling sustainable grazing to resume.

About the buyer

Natural Resources Wales is a non-departmental public body, and buys through its own NRW Procurement team. Smaller purchases are awarded directly with a written quote, rising to tender as value increases. Tenders are advertised on Sell2Wales, with higher-value opportunities run through the Jaggaer eTenderWales portal. The largest requirements go out as legislative tenders once the highest threshold is passed. Framework agreements are available through the National Procurement Service, Crown Commercial Service and the Eastern Shires Purchasing Organisation. Contract managers and requestors across the organisation raise and manage their own purchases.

Procurement spend from central entities makes up 66% of overall UK public spend.

Over the past 5 years, most of Natural Resources Wales's contract awards have been in waste, cleaning and environmental services, agricultural and horticultural services and construction work.
