West Northamptonshire Council, as the contracting authority, has closed the awarding stage for the "Ground Maintenance Service 4 X Closed Landfill Sites" project. This contract encompasses grounds maintenance services for four closed landfill sites within the East Midlands, specifically in West Northamptonshire, from June 2026 to June 2028. The procurement, classified under CPV code 77310000, was conducted using an open procedure below the threshold, targeting small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The contract, valued at £60,000, was awarded to Green Park Groundcare Limited. The tender stage ended on 29 May 2026, with submission clarifications welcomed until 20 May 2026.

This procurement presents a lucrative opportunity for businesses in the green maintenance and landscaping sectors.

SMEs with skills in both routine maintenance and ad-hoc tasks involving improvements and repairs would be well-suited to similar opportunities in the future. The tailored focus on SMEs ensures that smaller businesses have a competitive edge in securing government contracts that may lead to long-term partnerships and recognition within the public sector.
