Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Ubico Limited bought up to six kerbside recycling vehicles for use in the South West of England. The requirement falls within specialist vehicles and is a goods procurement, focused on vehicles suitable for kerbside recycling operations. The title associates the requirement with Cotswold District Council and the NEPO HGV Lot 2 arrangement, but Ubico Limited is the named buyer. The vehicles are intended for operational waste and recycling collection rather than general transport. Businesses relevant to this requirement include manufacturers, distributors and specialist vehicle suppliers able to provide heavy goods vehicles configured for kerbside recycling work. The geographic delivery area is the South West, while the buyer is based at its Central Depot in Cheltenham.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 7 August 2026 to Romaquip Limited. The awarded contract value is £1,088,363. The contract period runs from 8 August 2026 to 8 September 2026. The original tender deadline was 6 March 2026. The requirement covered up to six vehicles, with a total estimated tender value of £1,088,363. It was run as a tender for goods and has reached the award stage, so the selected supplier is already established. The award is active and the tender is marked complete. The procurement was not divided into separately reported awards: Romaquip Limited received the full stated award for the kerbside recycling vehicle requirement.

This award shows established demand from Ubico Limited for specialist kerbside recycling vehicles at a substantial fleet scale. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to supply heavy goods vehicles designed or configured for recycling collection, understand the operational demands of kerbside services, and manage delivery of multiple vehicles as a coordinated fleet. The incumbent supplier is recorded as a large organisation, and the opportunity was marked as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. This points to a market suited to larger, well-resourced vehicle manufacturers, bodybuilders, distributors or specialist fleet suppliers with sufficient production, integration and delivery capacity. Relevant businesses should also be able to work with public-sector procurement routes and meet the buyer’s operational specification for specialist recycling vehicles.
