## Summary

The procurement process for the construction of a Memorial Garden at the Kent Police College in Maidstone, Kent, has been awarded to Ground Control Limited. The buying organisation, 7 Forces Commercial Services, initiated this tender as part of an open procedure. The contract, valued at £249,970, took effect on 1st April 2022 and is set to run until 1st July 2022. This work falls within the category of site preparation and clearance, and is indicative of landscaping and historical monument construction.

Engaging with projects like this can help such businesses expand their portfolios and build a reputation within the public sector, particularly in local government contracts.
