Summary of the contracting process

Salford City Council procured landscaping works for a multi-use games area at Blackfriars Park, including landscaping for sports and recreational grounds and playgrounds. The work was to be delivered at the site in Salford, M27 5DA. This is a construction and grounds-landscaping requirement focused on creating or improving outdoor recreational space. The procurement was run by the council, which is also the buyer. The work falls within the broader landscaping and associated services covered by a highways and technical works framework.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to LANDSCAPE ENGINEERING LTD. The award date was 15 September 2026. The awarded contract value was £62,525.30. The contract period runs from 5 October to 30 October 2026. The council used a further competition under an existing framework, specifically its landscaping and associated services arrangement. Bids were due by 7 August 2026. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The published information does not state detailed evaluation weightings or other selection requirements.

This award demonstrates a requirement from Salford City Council for landscaping associated with a public multi-use games area, including outdoor sports and playground settings. A credible competitor for comparable work would need to show the practical capability to deliver landscaping at a recreational site and to work within the council’s framework-based further-competition route. The selected supplier was itself a small or medium-sized enterprise, indicating that this scale of requirement can be delivered by an SME. Suppliers with relevant experience in sports-ground or playground landscaping, and the capacity to complete a focused site project to a short programme, are best placed to compete when this buyer next procures comparable work.
