## Summary

Trafford Council has completed a procurement process for the "Greening Trafford Park - Wildflower Verges" project, which falls under the architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services category. The contract involved selecting a landscape contractor to assess, design, implement, and provide aftercare for wildflower verges in Trafford Park, United Kingdom. The project was awarded through a direct procurement method using the Constellia Neutral Vendor Framework due to urgent funding requirements. The award, valued at £36,734.69, was finalised on 15th January 2026, with the contract period starting on 19th January 2026 and ending on 31st March 2026. This procurement pertains to the award stage, and Grace Simpson from Trafford Council oversaw the process.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in landscaping and ecological design services, especially small to medium enterprises (SMEs), as it involves the implementation of innovative green projects. Though the project has concluded, similar opportunities in urban greening initiatives could be appealing for companies experienced in sustainable landscape development. The direct award process indicates that the buyer prioritises swift procurement in time-sensitive situations, and businesses capable of meeting tight deadlines could find future collaborations with Trafford Council beneficial for expanding their market presence.
