Summary of the contracting process

The Braintree District Council, through the Essex Procurement Partnership (EPP), is planning a national procurement for a Grounds Maintenance Equipment Framework. This procurement will be conducted via an Open Tender process and aims to establish a national framework agreement with multiple operators. The procurement is targeted at public sector bodies across the UK, with early market engagement ongoing through a questionnaire due by 22/03/2024. The estimated value of the framework is between £2m to £3m, with options for direct award and further competition. The future notice date for this procurement is 10/05/2024.

This tender for the Grounds Maintenance Equipment Framework presents an opportunity for businesses involved in the provision of grounds maintenance equipment, including delivery, parts, service, repairs, maintenance, and end-of-life services. Companies interested in bidding should be prepared to engage with EPP to help shape the framework, as well as to potentially participate in the four-year national agreement. Given the estimated value of the framework and the potential for multiple operators, businesses in the grounds maintenance equipment sector are well-suited to compete and benefit from this procurement process.

Notice Title

Grounds Maintenance Equipment Framework

Notice Description

The Essex Procurement Partnership (EPP - formerly known as EPH Essex Procurement Hub) is part of Braintree District Council and lets and manages national framework agreements. EPP are seeking to renew their framework for the provision of Grounds Maintenance equipment (including delivery, parts, service, repairs, maintenance and end of life) and wish to conduct some early market engagement to help inform what the framework might look like going forward. EPP would encourage interested parties to help us to shape this framework. Initially, engagement will be in the form of a questionnaire which should be completed using this link https://www.braintree.gov.uk/xfp/form/664 no later than 22/03/2024. The Responses will be reviewed, and we may contact respondents with follow up questions depending on the findings. This will be a national four-year framework agreement available to all Public Sector Bodies around the UK, with an estimated value between PS2m and PS3m. We are considering options for direct award and further competition. Throughput on our current and similar version of this framework agreement is in the region of PS1.5m.
