Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council purchased a Scarab Magnum 72 road sweeper for council use. This is a vehicle supply requirement, rather than a street-cleaning service: the council is acquiring the sweeper itself. Delivery is for council use in the South East of England. The specific vehicle model and outright-purchase arrangement indicate a requirement for a complete specialist road-sweeping vehicle, suitable for the council’s operational needs. Scarab Sweepers Limited was selected to supply it.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Scarab Sweepers Limited on 14 October 2026. The awarded value is £224,551.20. The contract period runs from 15 October 2026 to 28 January 2027. The council made the purchase through a call-off from the ESPO 215_24 Specialist Vehicles framework, using an outright-purchase arrangement. The tender deadline was 10 October 2026. The stated procurement value was also £224,551.20. The requirement is recorded as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and it was a goods procurement. The award information identifies one supplier and one road sweeper model; no separate lots are identified.

This award demonstrates demand from Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council for outright purchase of a specialist road sweeper, rather than a cleaning service or vehicle hire. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to supply a complete vehicle matching the council’s operational specification, including the relevant Scarab Magnum 72 model or a suitable alternative if permitted by the future specification. The successful supplier was Scarab Sweepers Limited, a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that a specialist SME can compete for this scale of vehicle supply. The purchasing route was a call-off from the ESPO Specialist Vehicles framework, so framework access and the ability to respond to its call-off terms would be commercially relevant for suppliers seeking similar council vehicle orders.
