## Summary

Surrey County Council has initiated the Countryside Services Framework, a comprehensive contract to deliver a variety of countryside services supporting the Environment, Transport, and Infrastructure directorate, including Highways. The framework, which covers works on public highway verges, public rights of way, and other countryside sites, falls under the grounds maintenance services category (CPV code 77314000). The procurement process has progressed to the award stage, having utilised an open procedure (below threshold) method. The contract was published on 22nd July 2024, and the contract period will commence on 1st April 2024, running until 31st March 2028. This procurement is located in the South East region of the United Kingdom, with a total value of GBP 2,000,000.

This tender presents lucrative opportunities for growth, particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), as indicated by the tender's suitability criteria. Businesses involved in grounds maintenance services and those capable of supporting municipality-driven environmental, transport, and infrastructure projects would be well-suited to compete. Engaging in this comprehensive framework can bolster a company's portfolio, enhance its visibility in the public sector, and provide steady, long-term engagement over the four-year contract period.
