About
The Forestry Commission awarded a contract to RWSF Ltd and Glebe Contractors for the creation and maintenance of open areas within the Forest of Dean to facilitate deer and feral wild boar culling, running for four years from October 2017.
The contract was split into two lots: Lot 1 for creation (mulching) with a first-year value of approximately £28,000 and an on-demand day rate for the remaining three years, and Lot 2 for maintenance (swiping) with an annual maximum value of £10,000 for each of the four years.
The total contract value was AUD 80,000.
Work under Lot 1 was expected to decrease after the first year, while Lot 2 work was expected to increase over time to maintain the open areas created.
