Summary of the contracting process

The Vale of Glamorgan Council is seeking to procure a Conservation Management Plan for the Italian Gardens in Penarth, with the aim of managing and maintaining the site's significance and historic character. This tender falls under the services category, specifically targeting landscape architectural services and cultural services. The procurement process is at the tender stage, and it utilises an open competition method below the threshold. Key dates include an enquiry period ending on 5th January 2026 and a tender submission deadline of 12th January 2026. The project is slated to begin on 19th January 2026, with completion by 27th March 2026. Interested parties should ensure that their proposals are submitted electronically, as this is the permitted submission method.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the landscape architecture and cultural services sectors, especially those adept in developing conservation plans that balance historical significance with modern management strategies. The relatively modest budget of £7,500 makes it particularly appropriate for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) looking to enhance their portfolio and gain exposure through public sector work. The project’s focus on culturally and historically significant sites may also attract firms with a strong background in managing heritage projects, positioning them favourably to deliver a comprehensive management plan that aligns with both conservation and community engagement goals.
