## Summary

The public procurement process for the "Origin Grounds Maintenance" contract was managed by Places for People Group Limited, a sub-central government public authority. The contract, valued at £2,090,000, involves delivering grounds maintenance and tree maintenance services across various residential and retirement properties spanning Central, North, and Northwest London, as well as parts of Hertfordshire. The procurement was carried out using an open procedure and has reached the award stage with John O’Conner (Grounds Maintenance) Limited as the supplier. Key deadlines included the standstill period ending on 23rd June 2026, with the contract periods starting from 1st July 2026 and potentially lasting up to five years.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for companies specialising in landscaping, grounds maintenance, and related services. As the procurement process was open to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), it encourages competition among a diverse range of service providers. Businesses capable of providing quality and technically adept services in planting, maintenance of green areas, and tree-cutting would be well-suited to meet the contract's requirements. The inclusion of an option for contract renewal further enhances the contract's attractiveness for businesses seeking long-term engagement.
