Notice Information
Notice Title
Hire and Maintenance of Building Maintenance Vehicles
Notice Description
A further 12 month contract with the incumbent supplier for the hire and maintenance of 91 vehicles for Housing and caretaker teams. This additional 12 months will enable the Council to complete its fleet review to determine what vehicles will be required in the future to support Council objectives while maintaining operational capacity/performance. Upon completion of this review a compliant procurement exercise will be carried out.
Procurement Information
A Council wide fleet review is currently in progress and will determine the type of van and fuel required going forward. This review will outline how the Councils fleet can meet operational requirements going forward as well as how it can support net zero ambitions. Depending on the outcome of the review it will also impact infrastructure requirements, such as the need for electric charge points if the Council opts for alternatives to diesel or petrol. There are also numerous operational considerations such as how/where/when the vehicles will be refueled if alternative fuel sources are to be utilised. As a result of this it is not currently practical to replace the existing fleet of 91 housing vans without having an appropriate plan, infrastructure and support services in place. A commitment to replace the vans at this stage, just for 12 months, would result in additional costs to the Council and potentially work against the Councils net Zero targets in the long term. In additional to the financial costs involved, a change in supplier at this stage could result in vehicles/a service that is incompatible with existing ways of working which would prevent Council staff from undertaking appropriate repair and maintenance work for its Contract Holders, thus negatively impacting the service received by the public.
