  • Conducting detailed field inspections and sampling at approximately 50 plots, each around 1,500 m2.
  • Recording data on the effectiveness of treatment methods such as cutting, lopping, ring-barking, felling, and herbicide application.
  • Documenting metrics for each plant that did not die post-treatment, including species, method used, stem size, and reasons for non-death.
  • Ensuring data collection is performed independently, with staff equipped for remote and mountainous areas.

Technical Requirements

The technical requirements include:

  • Proven experience in managing large or complex datasets (>10,000 data items).
  • Ability to locate and sample pre-treated sites accurately.
  • Use of standardized methods for recording treatment effectiveness, including GPS, species identification, and treatment details.
  • Completion of data in specified formats (e.g., MS Excel spreadsheets).
  • Compliance with mandatory requirements such as proof of track record, tax compliance, and registration on the Central Supplier Database.
  • Adherence to safety protocols and independent operation in remote areas.

  • Experience in environmental field sampling, vegetation clearing, or related ecological projects.
  • Capability to handle medium to large datasets and detailed data recording.

Joint Ventures, Consortia and Subcontracting:

Most large tenders are composed of tasks in a number of different fields, and it is not always possible for a single company to cater for all of them, and therefore Joint Ventures and Consortia are formed to then submit a tender together.

Government tenders are also requiring the subcontracting of a percentage of the tender work, and the trouble is then finding Subcontractors to comply with the tender requirements

To assist companies with finding tender partners and subcontractors, you can now submit your contact details and company information on this page, so other interested parties can contact you for purposes of forming Joint Ventures and subcontracting
