Field Data Collection Services DPS

Forest Research is establishing a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) under which to place contracts with suppliers to provide a wide range of field data collection services.

Suppliers are invited to apply for inclusion on the DPS if they can cover any aspects of field data collection as follows: - Survey work, such as National Forest Inventory (NFI) and Trees Outside of Woodlands (TOW) - Installation of surveying/monitoring equipment for our Natural Capital Ecosystem Assessment (NCEA) work - Forest Mensuration and Production surveys (such as U18), Forest Attribute Surveys to update GIS information, collection of data from experimental sites. - Surveys such as but not limited to woodland surveys, forest production and forest attribute surveys, storm and windblown damage surveys.

The DPS will enable Forest Research to hold 'mini--competitions' for services as and when required.
