When does Forestry Commission re-tender its contracts?

Forestry Commission has 29 contracts with a published end date. 5 are inside the re-tender window now, and 14 more reach it within the next twelve months. The window is estimated from each contract's end date minus a lead time scaled to its value, because a larger contract is usually prepared a year or more ahead. It is an estimate, not an announcement: the buyer can extend, re-scope or cancel.

Where does this information come from?

Every contract here comes from notices Forestry Commission published on the UK government's Find a Tender service, under the Open Government Licence v3.0. End dates, values and suppliers are as the buyer published them.
