## Summary

Westmorland and Furness Council is seeking a contractor for the "Provision of Weed Control Programme 2025" within the Barrow area and South Lakeland Area. This contract, currently in the planning stage, falls under the industry category of Weed-clearance services (CPV: 77312000). The programme involves weed control on adopted highways and hard-surfaced footpaths in these districts. Key dates include an engagement end date on 14th February 2025. The procurement process, treated as a tender, plans to allocate a budget of £69,000 GBP for this service, with the work primarily located in England, United Kingdom.

This tender presents a significant business opportunity, particularly for companies specialising in weed management and landscape maintenance services. The contract’s specification makes it an attractive project for businesses that can deliver high-quality weed control solutions suitable for public infrastructure. However, it is not particularly suitable for SMEs or VCSEs. Businesses capable of handling large-scale, region-wide projects, and those looking to expand their operations within public sector contracts in the weed-clearance segment, will find this tender particularly beneficial.
