Description

Great Yarmouth Borough Council has a fantastic opportunity for a supplier of a small-scale grounds maintenance function.
The council is particularly keen to encourage a social enterprise model for the service. It is seeking innovation in the approach to its ornamental flower beds and planters in key locations within Great Yarmouth town centre. This is an area where our previous approach has been limited and we are keen to explore alternative solutions.
We're looking for a supplier to design and deliver the grounds maintenance service for key locations in Great Yarmouth town centre. As a prime seaside destination we attract thousands of tourists every year and we're looking to make a strong visual impact and bring the 'wow' factor back to the town centre and key seaside promenade areas.
We're keen to listen to innovative and creative ideas on how we can do something that has a real impact for visitors and residents alike.
Interviews for shortlisted organisations will take place on Wednesday 4 April 2018.
This procurement is being undertaken on the Council's ProContract portal please follow the link to express your interest, answer the questions and submit your response.
