- Why no open competition
The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator due to absence of competition for technical reasons
- Published justification
There are no other organisations with the ability and expertise to distribute trees to people across the country, organise volunteers to support people in planting them, and also provide options for people to have a tree planted on their behalf. The Woodland Trust are the only organisation that can deliver every aspect of this campaign in Wales, because they are the only organisation with the existing supply lines, the ability to set up enough distribution hubs, and the expertise required for both pre and post guidance for the tree planting itself, as well as being able to mobilise volunteers to support the campaign.
The Woodland Trust are also currently running a large tree giveaway called the ‘Big Climate Fightback’, and the opportunity to build upon this initiative will improve value for money of this project, and increase the reach beyond what any other organisation can hope to achieve.
Publisher note: The contract period is Dec 21-31 March 23 (WA Ref:116324)
