## Summary

The City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council intends to procure grounds maintenance and landscape gardening at crematoria sites across the Bradford district. The work is intended to maintain a high-quality first impression at the sites and includes grounds maintenance and hedge trimming. This is a local authority services requirement, with the work delivered in West Yorkshire. It is planned as a single lot and participation is reserved for small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises based in West Yorkshire.

This is at the planning stage: the council has stated its intention to procure, but has not yet invited tenders. It expects to use an open competition below the public procurement threshold. The council’s indicative date for publishing the next procurement notice is 16 November 2026; the planned tender period is shown as ending on 11 December 2026, rather than as a response deadline at this planning stage. The estimated value is £120,000 excluding VAT (£144,000 including VAT). The anticipated contract period is 1 March 2027 to 28 February 2030, with two possible 12-month renewals, allowing an extension to 27 February 2032. The procurement is one lot.

This planned contract is suited to West Yorkshire-based small businesses and voluntary, community or social enterprises able to deliver grounds maintenance at crematoria. Suppliers with practical capability in maintaining landscaped grounds and trimming hedges are aligned with the stated scope; consistent work across crematoria sites will require the capacity to maintain a good standard of presentation. The council’s stated aim is to create a quality first impression at its crematoria, so bidders should be prepared to show how their service will achieve and sustain that outcome. The planning information does not set out specific accreditations, staffing levels or experience thresholds, so suppliers should monitor the later procurement details for requirements before deciding how to participate.
