UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council commissioned soft landscaping works for Butterfly Banks in Blaenau Gwent. The work comprised excavation and earthmoving, importing aggregate, and sowing wildflower seed. It is a practical landscaping and grounds works requirement focused on creating or improving wildflower areas.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to LWE Projects Ltd. It was a below-threshold limited competition, with quotations sourced under the Council’s Contract Procedure Rules. The contract was signed on 28 August 2026 and runs from 1 September to 16 October 2026. Its value is £35,680 excluding VAT (£42,816 including VAT). The process was divided into one lot.

For comparable work, a credible supplier would need to deliver excavation and earthmoving, bring in and place aggregate, and undertake wildflower seeding as part of a soft landscaping package. The selected supplier was an SME, showing that this requirement was delivered by a small business. Suppliers with practical capability across the full sequence of site preparation and seeding are the closest fit for this council’s Butterfly Banks requirement.
