Contract Hire with Full Risk Maintenance of Specialist Plant Vehicles

Description

Slough Borough Council operates a statutory waste recycling centre at our Chalvey depot and requires a total of four types of specialist plant machinery to undertake the sorting and loading of waste.
One item of plant is required to be based at our Slough Crematorium depot (grounds dept) and operates primarily from 6 am – 5pm, 6 days per week, however, this machine will be required to support on a 24 hour call out basis as it used for emergency call outs as and when required.
Both locations are key in delivering statutory and emergency requirements, and the plant machinery are vital tools in enabling this to be achieved.
The contract will be for an initial three year duration with an option to extend for a further 2 years (3+1+1).

Complete Tender Coverage

Following Brexit, the new official Find a Tender system has been developed by UK Government to detail all public procurement contract opportunities expected to be over £122, 976 for Central Government or £189,330 for the remainder of the public sector e.g. NHS contracts, Local Authority contracts, Housing Association contracts. Publishing requirements for all of the public sector are in place to ensure transparency, fairness and open competition.

All UK public sector opportunities under these values, but over £10,000 for central government or over £25,000 for other public sector organisations, are still required to be published on Contracts Finder. Scotland, Wales and NI also have their own dedicated sites: Public Contracts Scotland, Sell2Wales, eSourcing NI and eTendersNI.

Complete Tenders have centralised and consolidated all of this information into a single, easy to use platform that is updated hourly with all new opportunities.
