Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council procured orchard and associated external landscaping works at Hounsome Fields Primary School. The requirement is classified as landscaping work and falls within the works category. It was issued as Lot 2 under the Landscape and External Works Framework 2023–2027, with the school as the named delivery location. The requirement concerns a specific school site rather than a general supply of landscaping materials or an advisory service. Businesses relevant to this opportunity would therefore include contractors able to plan and deliver orchard planting and related landscape or external works in an education setting. The council was the buying organisation, and Rocon Contractors Ltd was identified as the selected supplier.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a framework-based tender under the Landscape and External Works Framework 2023–2027, with the procurement method described as “Other”. Tender returns were due through In-Tend by 2pm on 7 August 2026. Hampshire County Council awarded the contract to Rocon Contractors Ltd on 27 August 2026. The recorded awarded value is £0 GBP. The awarded contract period runs from 10 August 2026 to 30 October 2026. The award is active. The opportunity was marked as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The procurement record identifies one landscaping works requirement, presented as Lot 2.

For future requirements of this kind, credible suppliers will need practical landscaping and external works capability, with particular experience of delivering orchard or planting works at a primary school or comparable public site. They should be able to work within a structured public-sector framework and manage site delivery around an education environment, including coordination, safe working and completion of the required external works. The selected route indicates that familiarity with Hampshire County Council’s Landscape and External Works Framework can be commercially relevant. The procurement was marked unsuitable for SMEs and VCSEs, so competitors should be prepared to demonstrate the organisational capacity, established delivery arrangements and specialist landscaping experience expected for a council framework call-off.
