This open tender process is being conducted under OJEU procurement rules, with a total contract value of £240,000.

This procurement opportunity presents a significant chance for businesses specialising in grounds maintenance, landscaping, and tree care services to expand their operations. Companies that offer services such as grass cutting, shrub maintenance, and tree surveying would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Given the structure of the tender, which will award the work in separate lots, there is potential for multiple contractors to emerge, thereby broadening the market entry for skilled small to medium enterprises (SMEs) looking to establish or enhance their foothold in the public sector procurement arena.
