Summary of the contracting process

Newport City Council procured services for the Ellen Ridge Travellers Site in Newport. The requirement combined landscaping work with development consultancy services, supporting the creation or improvement of a travellers site. The work was delivered in Newport, under the council’s responsibility as the public buyer. Emroch Landscapes Ltd was the selected supplier. The procurement was organised as a single requirement rather than separate lots, covering the site-related landscaping and consultancy scope together. Businesses with experience of landscaping projects alongside development consultancy for travellers’ sites or similar accommodation and site infrastructure projects would find the subject matter most relevant. The requirement sits within public-sector construction and land-development services, with a practical delivery element as well as consultancy input.

The procurement has been awarded and the resulting contract has been terminated because it was completed. Newport City Council used a below-threshold limited competition, inviting selected suppliers based on the contract value. Emroch Landscapes Ltd received the award. The contract was signed on 28 May 2026 and ran from 8 June to 18 September 2026, with provision for renewal until the works were completed and a maximum extent date of 30 November 2026. Its value was £51,640 excluding VAT, or £61,968 including VAT. The completed contract had a final value of £40,000 excluding VAT, or £48,000 including VAT. The contract termination took effect on 18 September 2026, with completion recorded as the reason.

This procurement indicates demand from Newport City Council for combined landscaping and development consultancy connected with travellers’ site projects. A credible future competitor would need to manage practical landscaping delivery while contributing relevant development consultancy, rather than offering only general grounds maintenance or unrelated advisory work. The selected supplier was recorded as an SME and a voluntary, community or social enterprise, showing that the requirement was delivered by a smaller specialist organisation with this profile. Businesses with a similar scale, the ability to undertake site-based works, and experience coordinating physical landscaping with development requirements would be well placed to assess comparable opportunities from this buyer. The limited competition route also makes familiarity with invited, below-threshold council procurements commercially relevant.
