Notice Title

Rewriting and Development of the CWGC Horticultural Manual

Notice Description

The Commission employs over 800 gardeners around the world to maintain our sites. Over the years, agreed procedures and practices have been put in place to ensure that the CWGC Horticultural standards are universal across our sites. The Horticultural Manual has provided a central guidance resource to support training, skill development and day to day operations. The last update to the manual was in 2011 and following a review of the documents and our training practices, it has been identified that the content and format of the manual need to be updated to improve accessibility and reflect current best practice. The Commonwealth War Graves Commission is seeking tenders from suitably qualified suppliers to update it's current Horticulture Manual, to improve accessibility and reflect current best practice.
