The work is divided into five lots: grounds maintenance at Wythenshawe sites; four other school sites; PEA; three further sites; and a separate lot for astroturf. The opportunity covers routine upkeep of school grounds, with the astroturf lot focused on that specialist surface. Suppliers can consider the lot or lots matching their service range and geographic coverage. The buyer is Prospere Learning Trust, based in Manchester, and delivery is associated with its schools there. This is a services contract for maintaining educational premises rather than a construction project or supply of equipment. The buyer invited offers through an open procedure, and the process reached tender. The competition is divided into five lots, allowing bids for distinct groups of school sites or the astroturf requirement. The stated total estimated value is £350,000. The contract period is 1 March 2027 to 28 February 2030. The submission deadline set by the buyer was 20 October 2026 at 12:00 noon. The published information gives no separate enquiry deadline or evaluation criteria, so the basis for comparing bids cannot be summarised here. The procurement is described as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Suppliers were directed to register or log in to the MultiQuote supplier portal to access the competition and submit a quote. This opportunity is suited to grounds maintenance contractors able to service school sites in Manchester, with the choice of five lots offering scope to target a particular cluster of premises or the specialist astroturf work. Smaller suppliers may be eligible to compete, and firms can focus on lots that match their operational footprint and workforce rather than taking on every school. The astroturf lot may suit contractors with experience maintaining synthetic sports surfaces, while the school-ground lots call for capability in grounds upkeep across multiple education sites. The contract requires delivery over a multi-year period, so bidders should be equipped to provide sustained maintenance services and manage the relevant site coverage. The published requirements do not set out specific accreditations or technical qualifications. ## Notice Prospere Learning Trust require Grounds maintenance of all schools, This competition is Lotted into 5 Lots.
