Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council bought a mobile elevated work platform (MEWP), an access platform mounted on a vehicle. The purchase replaces one existing vehicle that was damaged in a road traffic collision and judged beyond economical repair. This is a supply requirement for industrial machinery, rather than a works or service contract. The recorded delivery location is England; Leicester City Council is based in Leicester. The requirement is therefore relevant to vehicle-mounted access-platform manufacturers, dealers and suppliers able to provide a replacement MEWP vehicle for a local authority. The procurement describes replacement of one vehicle, not a wider fleet purchase.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Cumberland Platforms Limited. The award was made on 10 September 2026. The awarded value is £103,568.76. The award record gives a contract period from 28 September 2026 to 27 September 2027. Leicester City Council set a tender deadline of 29 July 2026 at 12:00. The stated procurement method details are “Not applicable”; no procedure or evaluation basis is recorded. The purchase is presented as a single replacement vehicle requirement, with no lots identified. The opportunity was marked suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award confirms that a supplier has been selected; it is not an invitation to submit a bid on this contract.

This award shows a council requirement for a complete replacement vehicle-mounted MEWP after collision damage made its existing unit uneconomic to repair. Suppliers competing for a similar future requirement would be best placed if they can supply an appropriate mobile elevated work platform vehicle as a single, ready-to-use replacement, rather than offering access equipment alone. The successful supplier was a small or medium-sized enterprise, indicating that this type of purchase was served by an SME. Credibility is likely to rest on the ability to match the council’s operational need, provide a suitable vehicle and platform together, and deliver the replacement reliably. This is a focused equipment supply opportunity for MEWP and specialist vehicle suppliers, not a broad construction or maintenance contract.»}Xitsonga tbd?
