Summary of the contracting process

Ubico Limited procured up to 12 specialist 14-tonne diesel vehicles for kerbside recycling operations. The requirement is for complete vehicles rather than general fleet services, with the vehicles intended for delivery in the South West of England. The procurement is associated with Cotswold District Council and was arranged through Ubico’s role as the buying organisation. The goods fall within the specialist vehicle category, covering heavy goods vehicles adapted for recycling collection and kerbside waste operations. This opportunity is therefore relevant to vehicle manufacturers, specialist bodybuilders, fleet suppliers and distributors able to provide diesel-powered 14-tonne recycling vehicles. It is less relevant to general waste management contractors, vehicle leasing businesses without supply capability, or suppliers offering lighter commercial vehicles or unrelated recycling equipment.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Romaquip Limited on 7 August 2026. The awarded value is £2,187,783.84. The contract period runs from 8 August 2026 to 8 September 2026. The tender’s estimated value was also £2,187,783.84. The submission deadline was 23 February 2026. The procurement was for goods and covered a single requirement for up to 12 vehicles. The award is recorded as active, with Ubico Limited as buyer. The published outcome identifies Romaquip Limited as the selected supplier. The process used a tender procedure, but the available procurement record does not identify a more detailed method or provide an evaluation weighting. Businesses reviewing this outcome should treat it as a completed award rather than a current purchasing opportunity.

This award demonstrates demand from Ubico for a sizeable, specialised fleet of diesel-powered 14-tonne kerbside recycling vehicles. A credible future competitor would need to supply heavy goods vehicles configured specifically for recycling collection, understand the operational requirements of kerbside services, and manage delivery of multiple vehicles as a coordinated fleet. Relevant capability may come from a specialist vehicle manufacturer, waste-collection vehicle bodybuilder, or established commercial vehicle supplier working with suitable manufacturing partners. The successful supplier’s profile also indicates that scale and delivery capacity matter for this type of requirement. Businesses seeking comparable work should be able to show dependable production or sourcing arrangements, experience with specialist waste and recycling vehicles, and the capacity to support a public-sector fleet requirement for Ubico and its associated local authority services.
