Summary of the contracting process

The contract titled "NBC - PR47 - Blue Green Infrastructure - Advanced Screen Planting" was awarded by DEFRA (Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs), located in Worthing, West Sussex, United Kingdom. This contract falls under the industry category of landscaping work and involves the provision of advanced screen planting along with a five-year maintenance period. The procurement, valued at £199,835.91, follows a selective method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The award stage of the procurement process was completed recently, with the award announced on 21st January 2026. The contract is set to commence on 20th January 2026 and will run until 31st March 2031.

This procurement opportunity offers notable potential for businesses operating within the landscaping and infrastructure sectors. Primarily, opportunities are geared towards organisations capable of delivering extensive planting and maintenance services. Although the procurement method involved a selective approach through an existing framework, businesses with a previous framework agreement might have been well-positioned to compete. While this particular procurement did not specifically target SMEs or VCSEs, larger enterprises within the landscaping industry could leverage this agreement to strengthen their portfolio and demonstrate capabilities in large-scale environmental projects.
