## Summary

The Royal Botanic Gardens in Richmond, England, has initiated the Temperate House Precinct Project, seeking a landscaping contractor to undertake work that aligns with their horticultural standards. This project is currently in the planning stage, with a planned budget of £330,000 and a minimum estimated value of £100,000. The contract period is set to commence on 3rd April 2017 and conclude by 30th March 2018, with an important completion deadline for landscaping work by November 2017. Interested bidders will find future notices published with a key date of 16th January 2017 for further developments.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for landscaping firms, particularly those with experience in horticultural projects and adept at managing complex stakeholder engagements. Businesses that hold CSCS cards and have demonstrable capability in coordinating multiple project elements to adhere to strict timelines would be particularly well-suited to apply. Success in this procurement could enable firms to expand their portfolios and strengthen their connections within the public sector, potentially leading to future contracts and projects in similar environments.

## Notice

The Temperate House Precinct Project (THPP) requires the appointment of a landscaping contractor experienced at working on projects with a demanding timescale and engaging with multiple stakeholders. The landscaper must have a strong understanding of the horticultural standards that the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew (Kew) strives to uphold and the necessity to complete their work on time, as any delay will impact Kew's planting programme. Experience of working in CSCS carded sites is a must, either for or with a main contractor. Demonstration of a strong ability in the co-ordination and managing of different elements of a scheme to deliver on time and to agreed standards is also important. The working area will be the landscape contractors H&S responsibility, but the overall site will be under the construction contractor's H&S regulation. The landscaping work is required to be completed by November 2017 to allow planting to commence on or before this date. The glasshouse will open to the public in May 2018.
