Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process described pertains to Leeds City Council, which successfully concluded a tender for a "Flail Collector" under the agricultural machinery category. The process followed the direct award procurement method, specifically categorised under goods, and involved an active contract with Ripon Farm Services (Ripon) Limited for an amount of £19,398. The procurement was primarily directed towards the Yorkshire and the Humber region in the United Kingdom. The tender stage was marked by key dates with the contract period starting on 31 March 2025 and ending on 30 April 2025, followed by its award on 2 May 2025. This procurement is associated with the main industry category of agricultural, farming, fishing, forestry and related products.

For businesses operating within the agricultural machinery sector, particularly those capable of providing tractor-mounted flail collectors, participating in such tenders can present significant growth opportunities. While this specific contract was directly awarded, companies looking to engage in similar future tenders should monitor processes involving goods procurement by local councils to identify timely opportunities. Although Leeds City Council did not specify suitability for SMEs or VCSEs, large-scale suppliers like Ripon Farm Services were selected, indicating that businesses with a similar scale and capacity stand a strong chance of success in competing for comparable contracts with local government bodies.
