    Brief

    This is a framework contract for the hire of vehicles and plant/machinery to support operational requirements. The framework consists of 9 lots covering different vehicle types: 4x4s, vans and tippers (Lot 1); waste collection vehicles and skip loaders (Lot 2); recycling vehicles with bin lifters (Lot 3); kerbside recycling and food waste vehicles (Lot 4); road sweepers (Lot 5); grounds maintenance equipment (Lot 6); material handling equipment (Lot 7); battery electric vehicles (Lot 8); and powered access equipment (Lot 9). Suppliers can bid for any combination of lots. Up to 5 suppliers will be appointed per lot and ranked by overall score (price and quality criteria). When vehicle hire is needed, requests go to the highest-ranked supplier first, then cascade down the ranking list if unavailable. The contract runs for 4 years from 1 March 2027, with optional 12-month extensions (maximum 2 extensions). Appointment to the framework does not guarantee minimum volumes or values—all work is placed on an as-needed basis. Visit the eSourcing portal for full details and to submit your tender.
