B1009 – Framework for the Provision of Invasive Non-Native Species Treatment

Bridgend County Borough Council · Local authority

In brief

Bridgend County Borough Council has announced plans to buy grounds maintenance work. This is an early notice: there is nothing to bid on yet, but it tells you a tender may follow.

It is a framework worth up to £440,000 excluding VAT: the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers, not one contract.

The contract runs for 1 year, up to 4 years with extensions, starting 1 November 2026.

The buyer says it is suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.

Can I win this?

Competition

Usually high: a median of 8 bids per contract for this buyer (from 15 awards in the last 12 months).

Framework

Winning puts you on a list of suppliers the buyer can call on; it does not guarantee work. The £440,000 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.

What the notice says

Bridgend County Borough covers an area of approximately 28,500 hectares which stretches 20 kilometres along the M4 corridor from West to East, taking in the Llynfi, Garw and Ogmore valleys to the north and bordering the Bristol Channel to the south. Bridgend County Borough Council is completing Pre-Market Engagement for the future Framework for the Provision of Invasive Non-Native Species Treatment and Management to the Council. This will be a corporate contract which will run for up to 4 years to include extensions on an annual basis. The new framework will incorporate invasive non-native plant treatment and management service requirements across several departments within the authority. As part of our pre-market engagement we are asking for interested parties complete a questionnaire.
