Summary of the contracting process

Dacorum Borough Council procured planting works at Leverstock Green Neighbourhood Centre in Hemel Hempstead. The requirement concerned bedding plants (CPV 03451100), covering the supply and associated planting activity at the centre. This is a local environmental and neighbourhood-centre improvement requirement rather than a broad landscaping, construction or grounds-maintenance contract. The buying organisation is Dacorum Borough Council, based in Hemel Hempstead. The work was delivered in the Leverstock Green area of Dacorum, Hertfordshire. Businesses relevant to this opportunity include suppliers of bedding plants and organisations able to carry out planting works at a public neighbourhood facility. The selected supplier, SRT Trading Limited, is identified as a voluntary, community or social enterprise.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to SRT Trading Limited. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, and comprised one completed lot. The contract was signed on 15 May 2026 and ran from 15 May 2026 to 1 August 2026. Its value was £27,610 excluding VAT and £32,132 including VAT. The award is recorded as active and the contract as active. The requirement was evaluated through the buyer’s direct-award route rather than an open tender, so no competitive scoring or published award weighting is recorded. This outcome shows the council appointed one supplier for the bedding-plant requirement at Leverstock Green Neighbourhood Centre.

For suppliers assessing future demand from Dacorum Borough Council, this procurement demonstrates a defined local requirement for bedding-plant supply and planting works at a neighbourhood centre. A credible competitor would need to source and provide suitable bedding plants, organise delivery to the Leverstock Green area, and carry out planting works reliably at a public facility. Practical capability in small-scale horticultural installation and coordination with a local authority would be relevant. The appointed organisation was a large voluntary, community or social enterprise, indicating that an organisation with an established community or social-enterprise model can satisfy this type of requirement. Suppliers combining horticultural delivery with dependable local operational capacity would therefore be well placed when comparable work is next considered.
