Details

GRC’s management of its urban forest, parks and open spaces and other regional areas is focussed on a range of priorities around the liveability and safety of the communities, environmental benefits to residents and the aesthetics of the suburbs.

This will entail the delivery of both scheduled and unscheduled, reactive and proactive arboriculture services

to attend to the tree assets across the greater region to ensure that all the priorities can be delivered.

This tender shall result in the establishment of two separate arrangements:

1) Preferred Supplier Arrangement (PSA); and

2) Register of Pre-Qualified Suppliers (RPQS)

Tenderers are invited to bid on one, or more of the arrangements. GRC may choose, in its absolute discretion, to award the PSA to different tenderers or award to one Tenderer.

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this agriculture & food opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
