Mangrove Seedling Management Services for Tauranga Moana (manual hand-held tools only)

⁠⁠⁠This Request for Proposal (RFP) invites all able contractors and businesses to submit proposals for the manual (hand held tools only) clearance of mangrove seedlings from selected areas within Tauranga Harbour, in support of the efforts undertaken by volunteers through Bay of Plenty Regional Council’s Estuary Care Programme. This work would ideally suit contractors or businesses who have had previous experience in vegetation management services, for example working with hand-held tools or motorised scrub-bars in difficult terrain, as well as good communication skills, ability to comply with regulations, and competence with maps, GPS and computers. The estuary can be a challenging work environment and there is a strong physical fitness element involved in conducting this work, and health and safety aspects that need to be carefully managed.

Proposals must be submitted by email to the following address: procurement@boprc.govt.nz
