The procurement involves establishing a multi-lot Framework with multiple contractors for garden maintenance services. The proposed duration is from June to October 2023, with an option to extend for the grass cutting season in 2024. The procurement method is an open procedure with specific requirements outlined for each lot, such as minimum manpower and equipment capacities.

Businesses with expertise in landscape architectural services and capabilities to meet the specified requirements for each lot would be well-suited to bid for this opportunity. The Garden Assistance Scheme tender includes detailed specifications that must be adhered to by potential contractors, with evaluation criteria based on quality and price factors.
