Summary of the contracting process

The Newark And Sherwood District Council has completed the contracting process for the "Service Agreement for the Garden Improvement Scheme (Sherwood)" under a limited procurement method. The project's main focus is on agricultural, forestry, horticultural, aquacultural, and apicultural services, classified under CPV code 77000000. The service locations are within the regions UKF14 and UKF15 in the United Kingdom. The procurement stage is marked as "complete," and the process was initiated on 10th November 2024, with the agreement effective from 11th November 2024 to 31st March 2025, carrying an option for a 12-month extension. The total contract value, including VAT, is £30,000, and the award date and signing took place in November 2024, with public notice published on 17th September 2025.

This tender creates significant opportunities for businesses specialising in gardening and environmental services, particularly those that provide bespoke improvements in horticulture and related fields. Given the nature of the scheme, small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), especially those with expertise in the listed service areas, are ideally suited to benefit from such contracts. GRW Garden Maintenance of Shalom, a well-positioned SME, successfully competed and was awarded the contract, exemplifying opportunities for similar businesses to engage with government projects and leverage public procurement contracts for growth. Such engagements allow businesses to expand their portfolio within the public sector and potentially secure extensions or further government contracts.
