## Summary

Luton Council has completed a procurement process for the removal of soil from the Vale Cemetery Extension Site by grab lorry on a regular basis. This contract, classified under cemetery services and cremation services, aimed to maintain the aesthetics of the new cemetery extension in Butterfield Green Road, England. The value of the contract is £80,000 GBP, and it was awarded to Thomas Bros Excavations Ltd. The contract period starts on 27th October 2024 and ends on 26th October 2026. This procurement was conducted through an open procedure, with the tender period ending on 4th October 2024 and the award notice published on 2nd January 2025.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in soil removal and cemetery maintenance services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly well-suited to compete for such contracts, as Luton Council has indicated a preference for SMEs. By securing such contracts, businesses can establish long-term relationships with local authorities, ensuring steady work and potential for future contractual opportunities. The regularity of this service could provide consistent revenue streams and enable business growth within the local construction and waste management industries.

## Notice

Luton Borough Council has recently established a new cemetery extension in Butterfield Green Road. One of the effects of providing a burial service is a build-up of excess soil removed from the new graves. This will detract from the aesthetics and look of the cemetery for families visiting their loved one's graves at the cemetery site. One of the objectives of the cemetery is to make the experience for residents as calming and stress free as possible. This standalone service will be required to mitigate the stress caused to the bereaved.
