Summary of the contracting process

Glasgow City Council bought petrol-powered blowers, hedge trimmers and strimmers for maintaining parks and green spaces in Glasgow. The requirement covered the supply and delivery of grounds-maintenance equipment, rather than the maintenance work itself. It was a goods contract managed by the council, with delivery in Glasgow. The council also reserved the right to source non-core and additional items from the appointed supplier. This makes the opportunity relevant to manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers and specialist grounds-care equipment suppliers able to provide petrol-powered handheld machinery and deliver it to council operations in Glasgow. The requirement may also suit suppliers with a broader range of associated outdoor maintenance equipment, provided they can support the council’s core equipment needs.

The procurement has been awarded following a restricted procedure. One lot was completed, with FRASER C ROBB LIMITED selected as supplier. The contract is active and was signed on 4 August 2026. Its value is £54,405 GBP. Two bids were received, both from small and medium-sized enterprises, and both were submitted electronically; two bids came from suppliers outside the EU. The council retained an option to purchase non-core and additional items from the appointed supplier. The process was evaluated through a selective route, with the detailed award criteria governed by the procurement documents. The award relates to the supply and delivery of petrol blowers, hedge trimmers and petrol strimmers for Glasgow’s parks and green spaces.

This award shows established demand from Glasgow City Council for powered handheld grounds-maintenance equipment used across parks and green spaces. A credible future supplier would need dependable access to petrol blowers, hedge trimmers and petrol strimmers, together with the ability to deliver equipment to Glasgow. A broad product range would be useful because the council may also require non-core and additional items beyond the core equipment listed. The successful route attracted SME participation, indicating that the requirement can be contested by smaller specialist businesses as well as larger distributors. Suppliers should therefore be able to demonstrate reliable product sourcing, stock or fulfilment capacity, delivery arrangements and practical knowledge of equipment used by public-sector parks and green-space maintenance teams.
