UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Bristol City Council procured annual vegetation maintenance across public rights of way within its authority area, together with ad hoc minor highways works. The scheduled work comprises brushcutting and associated vegetation clearance. The requirement is for highway maintenance services, delivered across Bristol. The procurement was arranged as a single lot, covering the public rights of way maintenance and related ad hoc works.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Bassitys Ltd. It followed a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 15 October 2026 and runs from 19 October 2026 to 30 September 2028. Its value is £27,650 excluding VAT (£33,180 including VAT). The award covers the single lot for the public rights of way works. The published award information does not give an award date or explain how bids were evaluated.

For suppliers assessing comparable future work from Bristol City Council, this contract demonstrates demand for scheduled brushcutting and associated vegetation clearance across the city’s public rights of way, alongside ad hoc minor highways tasks. A credible competitor would need to show it can deliver a recurring maintenance programme across dispersed routes, carry out brushcutting and clear vegetation reliably, and respond to additional works within a highways maintenance setting. The selected supplier, Bassitys Ltd, is identified as an SME, indicating that a smaller business was selected for this requirement. The contract provides evidence of a modest, single-lot service requirement rather than a large multi-lot programme.
