In plain English

London Borough of Islington is looking for an arboricultural contractor to plant trees and maintain them for 3 years across multiple council sites. You'll need to provide a price schedule (SOR) for all planting work, complete planting before March, and explain what social value you'll deliver (community benefit).

What the buyer wants

• Provide a detailed Schedule of Rates (SOR) with final total cost for all tree planting and 3-year maintenance work at specified council locations • Complete all tree planting before the end of March in the planting season, with immediate watering after planting • Submit a social value proposal explaining the community or environmental benefit you'll deliver alongside the work

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: No budget figure is published, so you're bidding blind; if your costs are significantly above what the council has mentally allocated, you'll lose. You also must be ready to deliver detailed tree species, location maps, and stock details immediately after being selected, which requires advance planning.
