Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Runnymede Borough Council bought one 3.5-tonne precinct sweeper, a suction-sweeper vehicle for cleaning public precincts. The purchase is for a complete vehicle rather than a broader fleet or cleaning service. Delivery is in the South East of England. The requirement falls within goods procurement and is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The vehicle is intended for the council’s local precinct-cleaning operations; the published scope identifies a single sweeper and does not describe additional equipment or services.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Bunce (Ashbury) Ltd. Runnymede Borough Council used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The award was made on 24 September 2026 for £183,298. The contract runs from 24 September 2026 to 30 September 2029, when the warranty period ends. The original estimated procurement value was also £183,298. The tender deadline was 24 June 2026 at noon. The procurement was not divided into lots. The available evaluation information identifies the award and framework route but does not set out a separate scoring breakdown.

For suppliers of municipal street-cleaning vehicles, this award demonstrates demand from Runnymede Borough Council for a single 3.5-tonne precinct sweeper, rather than a multi-vehicle fleet or outsourced cleaning service. Bunce (Ashbury) Ltd, an SME, was selected through a framework call-off, so comparable suppliers would need to be positioned to supply a suitable vehicle through the relevant framework route. Credibility for a future requirement of this type rests on being able to provide a precinct sweeper at this scale and support it through its warranty period. Vehicle manufacturers and dealers with an appropriate framework presence and the ability to deliver the specified vehicle are the closest fit; the published requirement does not call for separate cleaning operations or additional services.
