Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process, initiated by Benson Parish Council, involved the clearance and redesign of a former commercial nursery, approximately 0.89 acres in size, located in Wallingford, England. This project falls under the category of "site-clearance work" with additional focus on "landscape gardening" and "weed-clearance services." The procurement process advanced to the award stage, with the contract being awarded to Landygirls Landscaping as of 25th July 2025. Set to be completed within the contract period from 1st February 2026 to 30th April 2026, the tender was conducted using an open procedure. The total value of the award amounted to £34,800, with a tender process having closed by 30th June 2025.

This tender opportunity supports business growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of providing site clearance and landscaping services. Given the specific nature of the work, companies experienced in arboriculture, horticulture, or landscape architecture would be particularly well-suited. The project accommodates larger machinery, thus potentially reducing operational complexities for service providers. The project's open procedure welcomes a competitive yet fair bidding environment, encouraging emerging businesses to leverage this chance to establish or further their foothold within the public sector market.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Clearance and redesign

Notice Description

A former commercial nursery of about .89 acres needs to be cleared of weed membrane, brambles, and other substantial overgrowth. Level and seed. Certain trees and vegetation will be retained and incorporated into a community area that will form about half of the site - but we need to be guided on what is worth keeping and what isnt. The other half will be turned into new accessible allotment plots. The site borders a chalk stream so opening the community area up down to the stream to create a lovely new setting for this area (no bank work clearance is required - this will be done by our own grounds team once EA consents are secured). Level the whole site, seed and generally creating a beautiful natural area for the community to enjoy. Access for large machinery is available. Burning is allowed on site and chippings can be disposed of nearby
