Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "RHUL-26128 Procurement of Grounds Maintenance Equipment" was led by Royal Holloway and Bedford New College, a sub-central government public authority located in Egham, UK. This contract relates to the goods category and involves the procurement of a Mower and Aerator, with the award being made to Lister Wilder Limited, a supplier based in Reading. The process followed a limited competition procurement method, with a focus on below-threshold activity. Key dates include the contract start on 11th June 2026 and an end date set for 10th June 2027. The procurement stage is now complete with the contract signed as of 11th June 2026.

This tender provides growth opportunities for businesses specializing in the supply of grounds maintenance equipment, particularly those capable of delivering high-quality mowers and aerators. Small to medium enterprises (SMEs), such as Lister Wilder Limited, which was awarded the contract, are well-suited to compete in this type of procurement, especially those that can offer competitive quotations within limited competition scenarios. Businesses with a focus on the UK region, particularly those with ease of access to Egham and surrounding areas, may find further opportunities to engage in future procurement activities initiated by the Royal Holloway and Bedford New College.
