In plain English
Old Basing & Lychpit Parish Council needs a grounds maintenance contractor to look after their land for 5 years, including play areas, sports pitches, a cemetery, allotments and a heritage site. You will mow grass, cut hedges, maintain sports surfaces (especially bowling greens and cricket pitches), and attend events including weekends. The contract is worth around £531,000.
What the buyer wants
• Provide regular grass and hedge cutting, maintenance of grass borders, cemetery upkeep, allotment maintenance and seasonal sports pitch treatment • Demonstrate prior experience maintaining heritage sites, bowling greens and cricket pitches with evidence of high customer satisfaction • Be flexible and responsive to the needs of sports clubs and other facility users, including weekend event attendance • Be based within 10 miles of Basingstoke
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: You must be based within 10 miles of Basingstoke and you must have proven experience maintaining heritage sites, cricket pitches and bowling greens, which will disqualify most general groundskeepers without specialist sports pitch knowledge.
