Summary of the contracting process

London Gateway Port Limited procured 10 hydraulic trailers for use at its port in the United Kingdom. The trailers are required to provide more than 150 mm ground clearance, steering beyond ±13 degrees, a 12,180 mm load bed and a 70-tonne load capacity, with a maximum dead weight of 11 tonnes. They must also have central lubrication and solid tyres. This is a purchase of heavy-duty transport equipment, classified as trailers. The procurement was arranged as one lot, covering the full requirement.

The procurement is complete and has resulted in two awards to separate suppliers. Movella Oy was awarded a contract valued at €1,206,000, with a contract period from 29 June 2026 to 25 June 2027; additional purchases may be made during that term. Terberg Benschop B.V. was awarded a contract valued at €2,027,600, running from 16 October 2026 to 8 February 2028. Both awards were dated 12 June 2026 and 23 September 2026 respectively. The buyer used a competitive flexible selective procedure, with prequalification followed by shortlisting. Bidders were assessed on economic and technical selection criteria; the final evaluation weighted commercial considerations at 60% and technical quality at 40%. The original lot estimate was £2,500,000 excluding VAT (£3,000,000 including VAT).

This outcome shows demand from London Gateway Port Limited for high-capacity hydraulic trailers built to precise handling and load specifications. Suppliers competing for a comparable future requirement would need to demonstrate that their equipment meets the stated clearance, steering, load-bed, payload, weight, lubrication and tyre requirements, and have the manufacturing and delivery capability to supply a multi-unit order. The award to two suppliers indicates that more than one manufacturer was selected for the requirement, while the staged qualification route means credible competitors should be prepared to evidence both economic standing and technical capability before tender. Technical quality and commercial competitiveness both mattered in the final assessment, with commercial factors carrying the greater weighting.
