Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process for the landscaping works in Town Park, Runcorn, conducted by Halton Borough Council, has reached its award stage. The contract title is "L303.6 Town Park Holt Lane to Palace Fields" and falls under the "Landscaping work" industry category. The project location is in England, United Kingdom, and the procurement method was a selective process using a restricted procedure. The process was completed with an award announced on 13th August 2025, and the contract period runs from 14th August 2025 to 30th November 2025. Halton Borough Council, located in Runcorn, served as the buying organisation, with Marianne Atherton as the contact person for this tender.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and enterprises with an interest or specialization in landscaping works. The contract awarded to Dunkil Developments, an SME based in Manchester, demonstrates the potential for similarly sized companies to secure contracts through selective procurement procedures. The project value, set at £515,000, offers a lucrative opportunity for firms within the landscaping sector to expand their service offerings and establish a foothold in public sector works. Businesses that are adaptable and capable of delivering high-quality landscaping services will be well-positioned to compete in similar future tenders initiated by local councils across the region.
