What is being bought

This is a UK13 Dynamic Market Notice for establishment of a Dynamic Market (DM) to procure Direct Production timber harvesting operations via thinning and clear-felling. The purpose of the requirement is to ensure that Natural Resources Wales meets its statutory duties and provides a timber harvesting service for the whole of Wales. NRW require direct labour services to provide expert felling, processing and extraction of timber to roadside to support current and future Timber Sales and Marketing Plans across the Welsh Government Woodland Estate. Key harvesting services sought include both mechanised and motor manual felling as well as the deployment of winch machinery to deliver steep-ground working without viable mechanised access. Other services required include but are not limited to; alternative harvesting machinery such as tree shear and grapple saws and the delivery of mechanised vegetation clearance, to respond to Statutory Plant Health Notices for example in response to outbreaks of Phytophthora Ramorum, on unmerchantable stands.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 77. The category anchor is Logging services (77210000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 776685 median · 27.9 average (154 of 668 with a bid count)4 average (160 of 668 with named award suppliers)1 comparable price pairs
Same buyer5Not publishedNot publishedNot published

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.

The updated notice includes the link to \"Register to Attend\" the Briefing Session on 16 September 2025 and the \"Supplier Questionnaire\". \nNatural Resources Wales intends to set up a Dynamic Market (OM) to secure Direct Production timber harvesting operations via thinning and clear­ felling. NRW require direct labour services to provide expert felling, processing and extraction of timber to roadside to support current and future Timber Sales and Marketing Plans across the Welsh Government Woodland Estate.\nKey harvesting services sought include both mechanised and motor manual felling as well as the deployment of winch machinery to deliver steep-ground working without viable mechanised felling access.\nOther services required include alternative harvesting machinery such as shears and the delivery of mechanised vegetation clearance, to respond to Statutory Plant Health Notices on unmerchantable stands.\nAs part of early market engagement, Natural Resources Wales (NRW) is inviting potential contractors to participate in our pre-market engagement (PME) activities. We are particularly interested in hearing from Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) with the expertise to meet our requirements.\nThe purpose of the engagement is to gather market insight, help shape NRW's approach to developing a dynamic market for the supply of direct production harvesting services and ensure suppliers are aware of the upcoming opportunity as early as possible.\nThis is not a call for competition and participation is voluntary.",
