Summary of the contracting process

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) had planned a procurement titled "Frameworks for the Provision of Gardening Works and Events Set-Up Support Services to the British High Commission Kampala." This procurement, under the category of landscape gardening services, was to take place in Uganda and was initially forecasted to run from 2025 to 2028. The procurement stage reached planning with a projected tender deadline on 10 April 2025. However, subsequent stages of this procurement were withdrawn as of 22 August 2025, indicating that the process would be republished in the future.

This tender presented an opportunity for businesses specializing in gardening services and event support, particularly those capable of delivering long-term contracts in international locations like Kampala. Companies with expertise in landscape services, sustainability solutions, and resource management would have been well-suited to compete. The procurement method was open, below threshold, making it accessible to a broader range of suppliers who could offer innovative solutions and comply with the quality and social value criteria set by the FCDO.
