We now require the provision of a fully comprehensive Arboricultural Maintenance Service for all our managed tree stock. This will include, but is not limited to, tree stump removal, temporary re-instatement of tree pits, tree pruning and felling. This will be set up as an RBH Framework as there are multiple lots. However, we wish to contract with a single supplier for Lot 1, which will fulfil the bulk of the work, the planned work. There are two further lots for the provision of Emergency Arboricultural Services both out-of-hours and during working hours in respect of any tree deemed an emergency. The award of contract to suppliers for Lots 2 & 3 may be given to the winning bidder for Lot 1, but equally they may not be. RBH does not want a situation where the need for a contractor to attend an emergency call out, negatively affects any planned works being carried out at the time of the call out. All works to be carried out on RBH public areas and individual gardens front and rear. SCOPE: RBH require a framework of suppliers or individual supplier to deliver a comprehensive Arboricultural service for all our identified tree stock. This framework includes a provision for day to day and out of hour's emergency tree services. Normal working hours are 7am to 7pm Monday to Friday. These are the hours for any in -hour's emergency works. The emergency out of hours work is between 7pm and 7am Monday to Friday and Weekends require 24 hour cover.
