Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Nottinghamshire County Council, acting on behalf of Broxtowe Borough Council, procured hedge-cutting services for outlying areas in the South and Central Areas. The requirement is divided into two areas, covering one or both areas, and involves maintaining hedges as part of wider landscaping services for green areas, parks, gardens, cemeteries, sports grounds and recreational areas. Delivery is in the East Midlands. The buying organisation is Nottinghamshire County Council. This is a grounds maintenance opportunity focused specifically on hedge cutting rather than general construction or supply of materials. It is relevant to contractors providing commercial or public-sector vegetation management, hedge maintenance and related landscaping services, particularly those able to cover one or both operating areas for the Council’s requirements.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 3 June 2026 through a selective restricted procedure. Clear Grow Ltd was awarded the contract for £82,449.96 including the stated award value in GBP. The contract period runs from 17 June 2026 to 16 June 2027. The procurement description also gives an estimated value of £45,557.10 excluding VAT for two 12-month periods, with an option to extend for a further 12 months from 17 June 2027 to 16 June 2028 if both parties agree. Bidders were invited to compete through the relevant provider lots and could bid for one or both areas. The contract was assessed as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This award demonstrates established public-sector demand for specialist hedge-cutting services across outlying locations in Nottinghamshire’s South and Central Areas. A credible future competitor would need practical hedge-cutting and grounds-maintenance capability, suitable equipment, competent operational teams and the capacity to service one or both areas reliably. Experience of maintaining vegetation across public landscapes, including parks, gardens, cemeteries, sports grounds, recreational areas and other green spaces, would align closely with the requirement. The successful supplier, Clear Grow Ltd, is recorded as an SME, indicating that the work can be delivered by a smaller specialist contractor rather than only a large national operator. Businesses with demonstrable local or regional coverage, dependable scheduling and experience working for councils would be well placed when a similar requirement returns.
