Summary of the contracting process

Bield Housing & Care is conducting a procurement process for Grounds Maintenance services, with a contract duration of 36 months starting from 1 April 2018, and a possibility of a 24-month extension. The procurement is based in Edinburgh, UK, and is currently in the Award stage. The contract has been divided into 8 distinct Lots, each reflecting Bield's Property Areas. Bidders are allowed to submit proposals for multiple Lots, although no single bidder can be awarded more than three Lots. The procurement method employed is a selective approach following a restricted procedure.

This procurement opens substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in grounds maintenance and landscape services, particularly those with proven experience and capacity to service multiple properties simultaneously. Companies with the capability to handle contract values of up to £2 million across the various Lots, along with the necessary insurance and financial qualifications, will find competitive avenues available. The fragmentation of the contract into multiple Lots allows for a broader range of service providers to participate, creating a more inclusive bidding environment conducive to growth.
