CPU 8399 Grounds Maintenance & Support

Nottingham City Council · Local authority

In brief

Nottingham City 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 £2,000,000 excluding VAT: the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers, not one contract.

The contract runs for 4 years, starting 1 December 2026.

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

Built from the notice's own fields. Always check the official notice before you bid.

Can I win this?

Competition

Typical: a median of 4 bids per contract for this buyer (from 43 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 £2,000,000 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.

What the notice says

Nottingham City Council will be seeking tenders from suitable and experienced suppliers for inclusion on a Framework to deliver Grounds Maintenance & Support within the boundaries of NCC. This is a Pipeline Notice published in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023 to forewarn the market of a future tender opportunity, and does not require any action from potential bidders at this time. When the tender goes live a further notice will be published giving details. The tender will be published on the Councils e-tendering platform which can be found at https://www.eastmidstenders.org. We advise registering on the portal to be notified directly of tenders published by the Council.

How to bid

  2. Register your organisation on the Central Digital Platform (through Find a Tender) if you have not already. Suppliers need to be registered to take part in procurements under the Procurement Act 2023.
