## Description
Portsmouth City Council ('the council') is inviting tenders from suitably qualified suppliers to provide grounds maintenance services at Dunsbury Park, Havant, PO9 4EE.  
The initial contract term will be for 3 years commencing on 2nd June 2025 with the possibility of extending the term by a further 4 years in increments to be agreed.  
Dunsbury Park is a 100 acre prime industrial and manufacturing business park owned and operated by the council. It is a designated tax site within Solent Freeport.  Located adjacent to the A3(M) it is home to Fat-Face's UK HQ, alongside DPD and Breeze Motor Group. Its success has continued in 2023 with recent lettings to Inchcape and Percussion Play and biomedical manufacturer Bio-Pure occupying a brand new 120,000 sq ft hi-tech production facility in 2022.
Dunsbury Park complements the natural beauty of the surrounding countryside and encourages local wildlife to flourish. For further information in respect of the site please refer to the link - https://www.dunsburypark.co.uk.  
The estimated annual value of the contract is £80,000 based upon current core requirements. In addition to the £80,000 the council may also at its option let additional project works through the contract. The value of these additional project works could equate to approx. £20,000 per year.
The site is still under development and as additional units are built and let this will impact upon the scope and value of the landscaping core requirements and additional project works. 
The council cannot guarantee or provide any specific forecast on the build out programme, however it is estimated that the impact of full build out on core requirements could increase the contract value by an additional approx. £20,000 - £30,000 per annum and for additional projects this could increase by £10,000 - £15,000 per annum. 
Tenderers should note that tenders will only be accepted where the tenderer can evidence that they have attended a scheduled tour of the site. The council reserves the right to set any tender aside where evidence of site tour attendance cannot be provided. For further information tenderers are referred to section 4 of the Invitation to Tender document.  
Tenderers should note that the council also reserves the right to set aside any tender which exceeds £80,000 per annum for the first year of the contract. For further information tenderers are referred to section 2 of the Invitation to Tender document.
