This contract, classified under Recreational, Cultural and Sporting services, was awarded to Monmouthshire County Council. The procurement method used was a competitive quotation, suited for below-threshold contracts, and the total contract value is £132,422.95. The contract period commences on 1st April 2024 and ends on 31st March 2029. Key dates include the tender period ending on 8th January 2024 and the award date on 20th February 2024. The services will be provided within the West Midlands, United Kingdom. This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses, especially those with a proven track record in grounds maintenance and a commitment to investing in their staff to improve service standards. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly well-suited to compete for this type of contract, which could lead to stable long-term work and opportunities to showcase creative and capable maintenance solutions. Companies able to offer innovative ideas for improving the maintenance program and those with comprehensive portfolios of previous work will likely have a competitive edge. ## Notice Ross-on-Wye Town Council is responsible for areas of land situated within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the Conservation Area. The current contract for Grounds Maintenance is due to expire and the Council wishes to realise some financial savings whilst looking at on-going improvements to service delivery. The Contract consists of grounds maintenance i.e. grass cutting and strimming in addition to shrub bed maintenance and provision of hanging baskets and pole toppers. There is scope for provisional items which include hedge cutting, play area maintenance and inspection, weed control, arboricultural works and street cleansing services. The Council is aware the land within its control is widely used for amenity purposes and leisure activities and therefore ideas for developing the maintenance programme to achieve improved results will be welcomed. The Council will be looking at appointing a contractor with a proven track record in this sector and an organisation which can demonstrate a commitment to driving up standards through investing in its staff. A portfolio of previous schemes of work highlighting competency, creativity and capability will be welcome with all bids. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d44f70ac-0eed-4e63-94c5-f3510d2cb79b | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Limited | | Procurement method details | Competitive quotation (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 23 Oct 2024 | | Submission deadline | 8 Jan 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 20 Feb 2024 | | Contract period | 31 Mar 2024 - 31 Mar 2029 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £120,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £132,422 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | ROSS-ON-WYE TOWN COUNCIL | | Locality | ROSS-ON-WYE | | Post town | Hereford | | Postcode | HR9 5HL | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLG West Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLG1 Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Warwickshire | | ITL 3 | TLG11 Herefordshire, County of | | Local authority | Herefordshire, County of | | Electoral ward | Ross West | | Westminster constituency | Hereford and South Herefordshire | | Delivery location | TLG West Midlands (England) | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | MONMOUTHSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ### Codes - 92000000 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ## Release History - 23 Oct 2024 at 10:35 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d44f70ac-0eed-4e63-94c5-f3510d2cb79b - 10 Nov 2023 at 10:45 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/12d1efba-6240-4224-a8f1-64b2f22df323 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d44f70ac-0eed-4e63-94c5-f3510d2cb79b 23rd October 2024 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/12d1efba-6240-4224-a8f1-64b2f22df323 10th November 2023 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/3f8c9630-1adf-4b12-8fcc-17cdfec1f740 Grounds Maintenance Contract ## Notice URLs - http://www.rosstc-herefordshire.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
