Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process conducted by DgC for the Essex, Norfolk, and Suffolk regions focused on routine maintenance services, particularly vegetation management. Categorised under the grounds maintenance industry (CPV code 77314000), this procurement involved a selective method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract, valued at £8,753.25 GBP, was awarded on 22 May 2025, after completion of the tender period on 26 March 2025. The maintenance work commenced on 1 April 2025 and is set to conclude by 31 March 2026. Notably, this process has progressed beyond the award stage, with Vegetation Management Services appointed as the supplier.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses involved in grounds maintenance and vegetation management services, particularly those operating in the East of England. Given the targeted nature of the procurement method, companies with established links in framework agreements are well-suited to engage in such contracts. The project covers routine maintenance tasks, providing potential for revenue through sustained service delivery across a year-long contract. Businesses looking to expand their portfolio within public sector works can leverage opportunities like this to enhance their presence in the regional market and strengthen client relationships with public sector bodies like DgC.
