    Brief

    Dorset Council is establishing a Framework Agreement for the supply of operated and self-operated plant hire services to support highway maintenance and infrastructure works. This framework is designed exclusively for Dorset Council's operational needs. Suppliers selected will provide both fully-staffed operated plant (where equipment comes with an operator) and self-operated plant (where Dorset Council provides its own operators). This is an opportunity to become an approved supplier on a framework agreement, which may result in call-off orders for plant hire services throughout the contract period. Interested suppliers should have experience in providing plant and equipment suitable for highway maintenance works, including but not limited to excavators, rollers, compactors, and similar heavy machinery.
