Summary of the contracting process

Maidstone Borough Council (MBC) has completed the tender process for the purchase of an emergency generator to be utilised at the Bircholt Road depot in Maidstone, England. The generator, with a power rating of between 80KVA and 100KVA, is intended to maintain key services during power outages, supporting essential operations such as fuelling a fleet of diesel vehicles, charging electric vehicles and equipment, and providing power to the depot office. The procurement method used was an open procedure, and the tender process moved through several key stages, including the release of the tender on 20th June 2024, the deadline for expression of interest on 11th July 2024, submission of tenders by 18th July 2024, evaluation during the week commencing 22nd July 2024, and finally the appointment of the contractor in the week commencing 29th July 2024. The contract period starts on 2nd September 2024 and ends on 1st September 2029, with a total contract value of £60,000.

The awarded contract offers substantial opportunities for business growth, particularly for SMEs and organisations within the emergency power supply industry. Businesses involved in manufacturing or supplying generators, as well as those offering maintenance and support services, will find this contract particularly beneficial. P & I Generators, a small to medium-sized enterprise, was awarded this contract, illustrating the Council's openness to working with smaller businesses. This type of procurement showcases how public tenders can diversify revenue streams and expand market presence for companies that can fulfil such critical infrastructure needs.
