## Summary

The procurement process, initiated by the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, is for the "Supply and Delivery of a Flail High Tip Mower". This tender falls under the environmental protection category and is located in Edinburgh, UK. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the tender period ended on 31 May 2018, with bids opened on 1 June 2018. The value of the awarded contract is £17,300, signed on 4 June 2018. The project aims to replace the existing mower, which is no longer suitable for its maintenance needs.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses, particularly those specialising in machinery supply, landscaping equipment, and environmental services. Companies that can provide agricultural or gardening machinery would be well-suited to compete for such contracts. The successful supplier, Henderson Grass Machinery Ltd, illustrates the potential for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to participate in public procurement processes, especially with the backing of an established buyer like the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh.

## Notice

The current flail high tip mower is no longer fit for purpose in terms of the grass maintenance requirements at the Gardens therefore, capital approval has been given to purchase a new mower which is urgently required.
