UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council, a sub-central public authority located in Winchester, has awarded a contract for specialised parts for the National Highways Winter Fleet. The procurement process was initiated as a direct award due to its below-threshold nature and was finalised on 27th March 2025. Romaquip Ltd, based in Birmingham, has been identified as the sole supplier for these bespoke parts, which include custom electrical systems, mechanical valves, body work, and material delivery systems. The contract commenced on 1st April 2025 and will run until 1st July 2028, with a potential one-year extension available if required, making it a long-term opportunity valued at £211,200 gross.

This tender represents significant business growth opportunities particularly for SMEs in the automotive and engineering sectors. Enterprises with capabilities in supplying or manufacturing custom vehicle parts, especially those with expertise in high-quality, specialised components for heavy-duty vehicles, are well-suited to compete in similar future procurements. Additionally, companies offering mobile repair services or bespoke material handling systems would find excellent alignment with the requirements and could leverage this tender to showcase their niche expertise to public sector buyers.
