UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Lincolnshire Housing Partnership Limited bought grounds maintenance services for vacant properties. The work covers planting and maintaining green areas, including tree pruning and hedge trimming. Delivery is across locations in Lincolnshire and the Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire area. The requirement is housing-related external estate work on properties awaiting occupation, so it is relevant to grounds maintenance contractors able to manage vegetation and outdoor areas around residential buildings. The buyer is a sub-central public authority based in Grimsby. The service category is grounds maintenance and horticultural services, including arboricultural and hedge-management activities. A supplier would need to work across the stated delivery areas and provide practical maintenance services suited to void housing properties.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct below-threshold procedure without competition. It had one completed lot. Lincolnshire Housing Partnership Limited awarded the contract to Alexander Hubbard Ltd, an SME. The contract was signed on 1 August 2026 and runs from 1 August 2026 to 30 March 2027. Its value is £66,666.67 excluding VAT, or £80,000 including VAT. The contract is active. The award covers grounds maintenance on void properties, including green-area maintenance, tree pruning and hedge trimming. The published outcome shows a single supplier and a single service requirement. No competitive evaluation basis is recorded for this direct award.

This procurement indicates a defined requirement for contractors combining routine grounds maintenance with tree and hedge work on vacant housing properties. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement of this kind would have experienced horticultural maintenance teams, practical capability in pruning and hedge trimming, and the equipment and supervision needed to work safely around residential properties. Operational coverage across Lincolnshire and the Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire area would be important, as would the ability to respond to properties as they become ready for occupation. A credible competitor should be able to demonstrate reliable delivery for a housing organisation, manage outdoor areas to a consistent standard, and coordinate work across multiple locations. The award to an SME also shows that the requirement can suit a focused regional contractor.
