The total estimated contract value is £440,000, with the contract period commencing on 9 February 2018 and concluding on 8 February 2022. The tender period ended on 15 January 2018. This project aims to enhance the visual appeal of public spaces in Wigan, with delivery addresses located in the North West region of the United Kingdom. This opportunity presents a significant potential for growth for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector organisations (VCSEs) experienced in horticulture and landscaping. Businesses that can demonstrate strong community engagement and expertise in public space maintenance will be well-positioned to compete. The selected provider will have the chance to collaborate closely with Wigan Council and local community groups, making a meaningful impact on the borough's aesthetic and environmental standards. ## Notice Wigan in Bloom Services Framework - The planting and reactive / routine maintenance of containers of various sizes located throughout the Wigan Borough. The visual impact of the containers is of key importance to the programme. The framework will be single provider for a period of 4 years. For further information and to apply see the Chest portal https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=a058ef20-89de-e711-80e7-005056b64545 Additional information: Wigan Council has taken part in the Royal Horticultural Society's North West in Bloom competition for over ten years. In the past six years, Wigan Council, supported by our communities, has collected over 100 North West in Bloom awards. These awards were for community-led, neighbourhood or town entries, as well as the corporate, borough wide entry. Wigan Council has been the Large City/Metropolitan Borough Council category winner numerous times. In 2017 the judges were impressed with the standard of cleanliness and lack of litter and strong links with volunteers. They also commented that locations were well maintained, with numerous colour displays for all locals and visitors to enjoy. The Council is looking to set up a single provider framework for the supply and maintenance of various containers of plants for display throughout the borough. The provider will need to liaise with the Council and local community groups & businesses to ensure that the service is giving the impact required. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c132608c-f186-46fb-8962-4fffc4f91e2e | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 22 May 2018 | | Submission deadline | 15 Jan 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 13 May 2018 | | Contract period | 2 Sep 2018 - 2 Sep 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £440,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £440,000 | | 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 | WIGAN COUNCIL | | Locality | WIGAN | | Post town | Wigan | | Postcode | WN1 1YN | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD3 Greater Manchester | | ITL 3 | TLD36 Greater Manchester North West | | Local authority | Wigan | | Electoral ward | Wigan Central | | Westminster constituency | Wigan | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England) | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | MOSS BANK NURSERIES | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 77 - Agricultural, forestry, horticultural, aquacultural and apicultural services ### Codes - 77300000 - Horticultural services ## Release History - 22 May 2018 at 08:33 - AwardUpdate - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c132608c-f186-46fb-8962-4fffc4f91e2e - 20 Dec 2017 at 05:37 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c132608c-f186-46fb-8962-4fffc4f91e2e - 20 Dec 2017 at 05:31 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c132608c-f186-46fb-8962-4fffc4f91e2e - 20 Dec 2017 at 05:25 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c132608c-f186-46fb-8962-4fffc4f91e2e - 19 Dec 2017 at 09:08 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c132608c-f186-46fb-8962-4fffc4f91e2e ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c132608c-f186-46fb-8962-4fffc4f91e2e 22nd May 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert/AdvertSummary?projectId=47bea839-88de-e711-80e7-005056b64545&projectStepId=4bbea839-88de-e711-80e7-005056b64545 Advert - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=a058ef20-89de-e711-80e7-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - http://www.wigan.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
