Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Brighton & Hove City Council bought eight new mowers for delivery in the South East of England. The requirement is for goods: new mowing machinery, classified under CPV 16310000. The council is the buying organisation, based at Hollingdean Depot in Brighton. The tender title identifies the procurement as part of the TPPL Brighton & Hove City Council NEPO GM & P arrangement, Lot 1. The requirement was originally described as 19 new mowers before being reduced to eight. This is relevant to manufacturers, authorised dealers, agricultural and grounds-maintenance equipment distributors, and businesses able to supply new mowing machinery for council operations. The opportunity concerns equipment supply rather than grounds maintenance, landscaping, repairs or ongoing mowing services.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Brighton & Hove City Council selected Farol Limited on 25 June 2026. The awarded contract value is £261,800 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract runs from 26 June 2026 to 26 July 2026. The tender submission deadline was 14 May 2026. The procurement was for goods and was conducted through a tender process associated with the TPPL Brighton & Hove City Council NEPO GM & P arrangement, Lot 1. The original requirement for 19 new mowers was reduced to eight. The published outcome records one active award to Farol Limited. Supplier suitability was marked as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The award basis is not described in the available procurement details.

Although this contract has been awarded, it provides a clear indication of Brighton & Hove City Council’s demand for new mowing equipment. Competitors considering a future requirement from this buyer would need the capacity to supply multiple new machines as a single equipment package, rather than only one-off sales. Relevant businesses are likely to include mower manufacturers, established machinery dealers and equipment distributors with access to new stock, dependable fulfilment arrangements and the ability to deal with a local authority purchasing process. The recorded supplier is a large company, while the procurement marked SME participation as unsuitable, indicating that scale and operational capacity were important characteristics of the successful supplier. Businesses should therefore be able to demonstrate reliable supply of comparable mowing machinery and readiness to serve council requirements in the South East.
