About

Forestry and Land Scotland is seeking suppliers to join a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for the provision of planting and establishment services across Scotland’s national forests and land, which commenced on 13th October 2025. The DPS provides a compliant route to market under the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 to replace planting services and maintenance contracts on expiration or termination, and is expected to be used for a range of primarily long-term programmed requirements while also allowing short-term contracts and innovative services related to the subject matter. The scope focuses on establishment operations including planting, beat up, weeding, top up spraying, herbicide application, fertilising, cleaning and singling, respacing, brush cutter work, chainsaw work and general estate labouring. Parties requesting admission will have submissions evaluated by FLS within 10 working days of submission (which may be extended to a maximum of 15 working days), and if successful will be admitted to the DPS thereafter.
