Delivering compliant vegetation control
The council manages extensive public land and highways infrastructure, requiring safe, compliant, and cost-effective vegetation control to maintain standards across its estate.
The challenge
The council required a specialist spraying provider to manage vegetation control across a large portfolio of public areas. Delivering the service in-house required significant investment in staffing, training, equipment, and compliance management.
They needed a reliable contractor who could deliver high standards, ensure full regulatory compliance, and provide better value than maintaining internal operatives.
Our approach
Countrywide secured the contract through a competitive tender process, demonstrating both technical capability and cost efficiency.
We implemented a structured spraying programme using fully qualified operatives, compliant products, and audited processes to ensure safe and effective vegetation control across all required areas.
Our teams worked closely with council representatives to schedule works appropriately, maintain clear communication, and meet strict audit and safety standards.
The solution
By outsourcing the spraying programme to Countrywide, the council reduced the financial and operational burden of managing in-house operatives and associated training requirements.
We delivered a fully compliant, professionally managed service that maintained public areas to specification while ensuring environmental and safety standards were met at all times.
The results
- Cost savings compared to in-house delivery
- Fully compliant spraying programme with consistent service standards
- Contract successfully delivered since 2023
- Achieved 100% audit results
- Reliable, large-scale vegetation control across council-managed land
Ongoing relationship
Countrywide continues to deliver the spraying contract, maintaining high performance standards and supporting the council with safe, cost-effective vegetation management year after year.
