## Summary

Derby City Council procured grounds maintenance works for its Nottingham Road and Uttoxeter New Road cemeteries in Derby. The requirement covers cemetery maintenance services, classified under CPV 98371111, and is categorised as works rather than general goods or consultancy. The work concerns maintaining council-owned cemetery grounds at two named sites, so relevant businesses are those able to provide practical, site-based grounds maintenance in a cemetery environment. The buyer is Derby City Council, based in Derby. The requirement is focused on cemetery grounds rather than wider estate, parks or general landscaping services, making experience with the operational and site-management needs of cemeteries particularly relevant to businesses assessing its fit.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a direct single-tender action described as below threshold. The tender deadline was 30 May 2026, and the contract was awarded on 31 May 2026 to Greg Long Tree Care. The awarded value is £40,000 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 1 June 2026 to 31 December 2026. The award is active, so this procurement records a selected supplier and an agreed delivery period rather than an opportunity for new submissions. The contract covers the cemetery grounds maintenance requirement across the two council sites, with the award made as a single procurement rather than separate published lots.

This procurement is useful market evidence for grounds maintenance businesses serving public cemeteries. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate the practical capacity to maintain two council cemetery sites, organise work across multiple locations and deliver reliable site-based services in a sensitive public setting. Cemetery maintenance experience would help distinguish a supplier from a general landscaper, particularly where work must be carried out around graves, memorials, visitors and established grounds. The successful supplier, Greg Long Tree Care, indicates that a specialist tree and grounds-care business can meet this type of requirement. Businesses monitoring Derby City Council should therefore maintain evidence of relevant cemetery or comparable public-space work, dependable operational resources and the ability to manage a defined multi-site service.
