Landscaping Services — 3 risks flagged across vendors

View Full Report
High
Automatic renewal clause

Premier Grounds

The contract renews automatically for successive 1-year terms unless cancelled with 90 days' written notice — an easy trap to miss.

Suggested action: Request removal of the auto-renewal clause, or negotiate a shorter 30-day cancellation window.

Medium
No response time SLA

LawnWorks

LawnWorks does not specify a guaranteed response time for service requests, leaving urgent issues without a committed turnaround.

Suggested action: Ask LawnWorks to commit to a written response-time SLA of 24–48 hours.

Low
Price premium vs. lowest bid

Premier Grounds

At $52,000, Premier Grounds is roughly 35% above the lowest bid without a clear scope difference to justify it.

Suggested action: Use the competing bids as leverage to negotiate the price down or expand the included scope.
