Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Ubico Limited procured 47 narrow refuse-collection vehicles, each with a 26-tonne capacity, for waste collection operations. The requirement is for goods rather than services or works and falls within the refuse-collection vehicle category (CPV 34144511). The procurement was associated with the South West of England, with Ubico based at its Central Depot in Cheltenham. The requirement was originally tendered for up to 50 vehicles but was subsequently reduced to 47. This is a substantial fleet supply requirement for a public-service waste operator, focused on specialist heavy goods vehicles designed for refuse collection rather than general commercial vehicles or routine vehicle maintenance.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Dennis Eagle Limited on 7 May 2026. The awarded value was £11,876,430 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period ran from 8 May 2026 to 8 June 2026. The tender submission deadline was 31 March 2026. The process was conducted as a tender and had one requirement covering the vehicle supply. The tender’s estimated value was also £11,876,430. Ubico Limited was the buyer. The award is active, and the contract period recorded for the award matches the period recorded for the tender. The procurement was not reserved for small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This award demonstrates demand from Ubico for a large, coordinated supply of 26-tonne narrow refuse-collection vehicles. A competitor seeking similar work would need to manufacture or supply specialist refuse vehicles, meet heavy goods vehicle requirements, and provide narrow-body configurations suitable for the buyer’s operational needs. Credibility would depend on the capacity to fulfil a sizeable fleet order, maintain consistent specification and quality across multiple vehicles, and coordinate delivery for a public-service waste operator. Suppliers with established municipal, local-authority or commercial waste-fleet experience would be well placed, particularly those able to support procurement through a formal tender process and manage a complete vehicle supply programme rather than isolated sales.
