Proposals are sought by Ards and North Down Borough Council for the appointment of suppliers onto an Arboricultural services framework. This will include planned maintenance works as well as emergency work. The framework duration will be initially for 1 year, with the possibility of extension for 3 further periods of 12 months. The procurement process will appoint the eight highest scoring suppliers to the framework. Thereafter a mini competition will be progressed for individual works.
