Summary of the contracting process

Severn Trent Water Limited has completed its procurement process for an HGV Framework, featuring three lots concerning the supply and hire of Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs). The procurement involved a selective and competitive flexible procedure under the special regime for utilities. The award stages occurred in April 2026 with contracts initiated from May 2026 until May 2030, subject to potential six-year extensions. A partnership with Hafren Dyfrdwy Cyfyngedig facilitated the framework aimed at AMP8 Replacement & Growth Programme objectives. The awarded contracts and supply agreements involve several companies including Roadvacs Ltd, Bucher Municipal Limited, and Whale Tankers Limited. The contracts cover regions across the UK with an aggregate budget exceeding £18 million, aligning with predetermined procurement timelines.

These contracts offer substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in the manufacture and hire of HGVs, particularly those capable of supplying tankers, recyclers, and chassis. SMEs with capabilities in efficient delivery, competitive pricing, and compliance with technical quality standards will find these opportunities appealing. With long-duration contracts and options for ad-hoc expansions, businesses focused on utility vehicle services can enhance their market presence by participating in strategies for infrastructure improvements, recycling, water and waste management. Additionally, the framework’s scope for extended engagement periods provides room for sustained partnership development for businesses meeting rigorous commercial and technical specifications.
