This procurement exercise is conducted via an open procedure and focuses on providing grounds maintenance services across north-east Wales and Ynys Mon. The tender, initiated on 23 January 2026, is set to close on 20 February 2026. The services fall under the 'services' industry category and are part of a larger strategy to ensure the maintenance and conservation of historic monuments. Interested suppliers must submit electronic bids via the etenderwales platform, with critical emphasis on various landscaping tasks and services related to soft and hard landscaping, tree maintenance, and invasive species management. This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, especially for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies specialising in landscaping, grounds maintenance, and historical conservation work will find this an appealing project, particularly those with experience in technical quality execution and cost-effective service delivery. Cadw offers site visits, ensuring suppliers gain a comprehensive understanding of the project, which involves a potential contract period extending from 2026 to 2028, with possible extensions up to 2031. This structure benefits businesses by providing extended project engagement and potential long-term collaboration with central government procurement authorities. ## Notice Tender Notice for Cadw's Grounds Maintenance Services ref C369/2025/2026. Please see tender docs on etenderwales bravosolution for more information and how to respond electronically via etenderwales project_61899 itt_122676. Interested bidders should note that Cadw are offering supervised site visits to a selection of sites across north Wales. Further information on the visits including sites, dates and joining instructions can be found in the ITT document at paragraph 8.Cadw has a statutory duty to both maintain and conserve the monuments in its care and provide safe access to the public where possible. The conservation of the historic monuments themselves is undertaken by Cadw's in-house heritage craft masons and joiners (Cadwraeth) and by contracting specialist historic conservation specialists where in-house specialists are unavailable. Grounds Maintenance is one of the services that Cadw must procure externally. Cadw will procure grounds maintenance (GM) services directly on a multi-region basis to cover all Wales, this to mirror the Cadwraeth regions already in operation. The regions covered by this opportunity are north east Wales and Ynys Mon. All other areas have been procured through a separate contract opportunity (ref ocid: ocds-h6vhtk-051de3 and notice ID: 154378) however, north east Wales and Ynys Mon received no bids, and so are being re-procured through this separate exercise.

The Grounds Maintenance Service will include (but is not exhaustive) work areas covering Soft Landscaping, Grass, Planted Areas, Hedges, Trees, Leaf Clearance, Reens, Ponds, Ditches and SWALES, Fertilisers, Invasive Species, Hard Landscaping, Boundary Walls, Gravel Borders, Weed Control. ### Lot Information North-east Wales.
