Description
The opportunity is to deliver estate services - grounds maintenance and arboriculture
services. Moat is seeking to enter into long-term partnering agreements with suitably
qualified and experienced organisations to deliver high quality, customer-focussed and cost effective services.
Service delivery is anticipated to commence on Monday, 8th April 2024 for an initial period
of 5 years to Sunday, 8th April 2029. Subject to satisfactory performance, Moat will have the
option to extend for additional periods of up to five further years, unless the Contract ends or
is terminated in accordance with the Conditions of Contract. The total maximum contract
term, including possible extensions, is ten (10) years.
Our corporate strategy includes commitments to the implementation of local offers to
enable us to tailor our services for local needs, designed by local people. In support of this,
we have divided our requirements across our geographical areas and are tendering on the
basis of multiple lots for each service.
Moat intends to award four contracts for the provision of grounds maintenance services and
three contracts for the provision of arboriculture services.
Bidders may bid for multiple lots, but it is not anticipated that multiple contracts will be
awarded to a single Bidder for each service type. For example, this means that a Bidder may
be awarded a contract for grounds maintenance services in one geographical area plus one
further contract for arboriculture services in the same (or a different) geographical area.
