ESPO is seeking to establish a framework agreement with a number of service providers for the provision of grounds maintenance services and arboriculture services. The key aim of the framework is to promote cost savings and create efficiencies by providing these organisations access to pre-approved service providers whom they may appoint using a simple and streamlined procurement process. Recognising the nature of the supply market, a regional approach will be adopted based upon the nine English regions together with other parts of the UK, in all cases subdivided into smaller geographical areas in order to avoid excluding smaller service providers. Service providers are invited to bid for as many geographical regions as they wish. Lot No: 1 - Grounds Maintenance Services - ESPO is seeking to establish a framework agreement with a number of service providers for the provision of grounds maintenance services. Lot No: 2 - Arboriculture Services - ESPO is seeking to establish a framework agreement with a number of service providers for the provision of arboriculture services. The framework agreement/contract has the option to extend for up to a further 12 months. The total estimated value stated includes the option period. An eAuction process may be used to award subsequent call off contracts following the reopening of competition among the parties to the Framework Agreement.
