Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council procured five refuse collection vehicles, classified as vehicles for refuse. This is a goods purchase for the council’s waste collection fleet, with delivery in Yorkshire and the Humber. The requirement is focused on supplying complete specialist vehicles rather than refuse collection as an operating service. Businesses relevant to this requirement include manufacturers, authorised distributors and specialist commercial vehicle suppliers able to provide refuse collection vehicles for local authority use. The purchasing organisation is the City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council, based in Bradford. The award demonstrates demand from a metropolitan district council for a defined fleet purchase serving waste management operations across the Yorkshire and the Humber area.

The procurement is complete and was awarded directly to Dennis Eagle. The award date was 27 July 2026, with an awarded value of £1,349,930. The awarded contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2029. The procurement used a direct award procedure, rather than an open competition. The original tender period ended at 12:00 on 8 July 2026. The tender record gives an estimated contract period from 9 July 2026 to 10 July 2026 and a total estimated value of £1,349,930. There was one requirement covering all five refuse collection vehicles, and the procurement was categorised as goods. The tender was marked complete before the award was recorded.

This award is most relevant to established refuse collection vehicle manufacturers and specialist commercial vehicle suppliers with the capacity to supply a five-vehicle fleet to a metropolitan council. Dennis Eagle’s selection indicates that a credible competitor would need a proven range of refuse collection vehicles, dependable production or sourcing capacity, and the ability to support public-sector fleet requirements over a multi-year contract period. Suppliers should be able to manage vehicle specification, delivery coordination and the practical requirements of council waste operations. The opportunity is not presented as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises, so businesses with substantial fleet manufacturing, distribution or specialist supply capability are better placed to compete when comparable requirements return.
