    Brief

    Carmarthenshire County Council is seeking suppliers and contractors through a framework agreement to provide short-term hire services for plant, vehicles, and associated machinery, with or without operator provision. The framework covers a wide range of heavy plant equipment including excavators, gully emptiers, street sweepers, telehandlers, rollers, and dumpers. This is a 4-year framework agreement, and suppliers should note that the estimated spend figures represent the anticipated total value across all lots over the full 4-year period. Individual call-off orders under the framework will vary in value and scope. Interested suppliers should have experience in plant hire operations and the ability to provide equipment with trained operators when required.
