The housing association wants to appoint contractors "to provide high quality and cost-effective" grounds maintenance services to "enhance the reputation of Westward Housing Group through the maintenance and improvement of its horticultural features on its estates".
Westward has not placed a minimum turnover requirement in the hope it will encourage SME's and micro companies to apply. It says it is "more interested in the quality of your work, that you are qualified and hold the right abilities to carry out the work".

Areas covered by the lots are:
Lot 1: Bodmin
Lot 2: SE Cornwall
Lot 3: Plymouth City
Lot 4: Plymouth North
Lot 5: West Devon
Lot 6: Torquay
