Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, titled "536_21 Hire of Plant (without operator)", is managed by ESPO (Eastern Shires Purchasing Organisation), a central purchasing body based in Leicester, England. The tender is in the planning stage and is intended for the hire of a diverse range of equipment without operators, falling under the agricultural machinery industry category. The total estimated value of this contract is £10 million, with a tender submission deadline set for 12:00 local time on 15 March 2021. The contract is expected to commence on 1 May 2021 and will conclude on 30 April 2023, with the possibility of a 24-month extension.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) looking to grow their business in the equipment hire sector. Companies that specialise in providing plant and machinery, including items such as excavators, pumps, and compactors, would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Additionally, businesses with experience in working with public bodies and those who can navigate the tendering process effectively may find this to be a lucrative opportunity to expand their client base within the UK public sector.
