Summary of the contracting process

The Hertfordshire County Council is currently engaging in an open procurement process for the "HCC 03/2022 - The Provision of a Grounds Maintenance Framework." This initiative aims to appoint capable and cost-effective organisations to provide general grounds maintenance services across various sites within Hertfordshire. The tender period concludes on 3rd May 2022, and the contract is projected to run from 1st August 2022 to 31st July 2026. This framework agreement will cater to multiple departments, including schools and fire stations, with potential services extending beyond the council's geographical limits. Interested parties should take note of the relevant deadlines and geographical context (East of England, SG13 8DE).

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses within the grounds maintenance sector, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) looking to expand their service provisions. Providers who specialise in landscaping, horticulture, or maintenance services would be well-positioned to compete, as the council intends to award contracts to several suppliers, thereby fostering a competitive environment without exclusivity. Businesses interested in utilising this framework should prepare to demonstrate their competence and cost-efficiency to align with council requirements.
