## Summary

Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council has completed the procurement process for the purchase of 22 ride-on mowers under the ESPO Framework 274_22 Lot 2, Grounds Maintenance Machinery. This tender, classified under the CPV code 16310000 for mowers, aimed to replace part of the council's fleet used for maintaining over 6 million m² of green spaces across the South East region of the United Kingdom. The key dates for this process include the tender period ending on 21st November 2024 and the contract period starting on 31st March 2025, with completion by 30th September 2025. The awarded contract, valued at £598,247.10, was signed on 17th December 2024, involving the supplier T. H. White Limited.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the supply and maintenance of grounds maintenance machinery, particularly those specialising in mowers. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would find this contract suitable given the council's focus on such entities, although larger entities like T. H. White Limited demonstrated capacity for successful competition. Firms equipped to provide high-quality, durable mowing equipment and technical support services to public sector clients would be well-positioned to compete in similar tenders, thereby enhancing their market reach and business growth potential.

## Notice

The Grounds Maintenance operations team maintains most of the green spaces in the borough, including, but not limited to sport pitches, open spaces, play areas, roadside verges and Worting Road Cemetery. The Council is responsible for mowing over 6 million m2 of green spaces with most of the general open spaces being cut approximately 13 times a year. This process generally takes place from mid-March to the end of October, depending on the weather and ground conditions. The Council has a requirement to replace 22 of its fleet of ride on mowers.
