[More contracts for small businesses and VCSEs](/opportunities/for-small-businesses)## About this tender

We will be awarding a framework agreement for Oak Processionary Moth (OPM) control services. This will include (but not is not limited to) chemical spraying and manual nest removal. We intend to appoint up to a maximum of 3 suppliers per lot. Work will be awarded according to the specific needs of each site and work distribution may be influenced by factors such as volume of work, contractor capacity and contractor performance. There are no guarantees that upon completion of the framework agreement work will have been distributed evenly amongst all ranked contractors. The majority of the work required will be at sites across London and the South-East including land owned by the London Boroughs, Royal Parks and private land holdings such as golf courses/parkland as well as trees in streets and gardens. However, we reserve the right to request services at any location in England where an OPM or similar insect pest problem arises. The contract will be divided into 2 lots depending on the type of service (insecticide spraying / manual nest removal).
