Tree Works Framework

South Holland District Council · Local authority

In brief

South Holland District 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 £400,000 excluding VAT: the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers, not one contract.

The contract runs for 3 years, up to 4 years with extensions, starting 1 April 2027.

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

Can I win this?

Competition

Usually high: a median of 8 bids per contract for grounds maintenance contracts in this region (from 70 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 £400,000 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.

The Framework is intended to: Provide a pool of competent arboricultural contractors Ensure safe, lawful and industry compliant management of tree works Enable timely response to planned, cyclical and reactive works Support best practice in tree safety, biodiversity and duty of care
