Summary of the contracting process

Hartlepool Borough Council has completed a procurement process for the purchase of a JCB C16 Compact Excavator 2022, with the industry category focusing on earthmoving and construction machinery. The direct procurement, conducted below threshold without competition, involved Hartlepool Borough Council as the buyer and took place in the UKC11 region of the United Kingdom. The process, initiated to improve cost-effectiveness in the council's highways service, resulted in an active contract status as of 30 June 2025, with the contract period spanning from 1 July 2025 to 30 September 2025. PD Agricultural Engineers, located in Sadberge Village, Darlington, was awarded the contract for £13,750, following positive feedback on the machinery's performance while on hire.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in the supply of construction and earthmoving equipment, particularly those capable of fulfilling direct procurement needs with competitive pricing. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like PD Agricultural Engineers, who can provide reliable machinery under flexible procurement terms, would find such opportunities beneficial for business growth.

Contract Summary

HBC's own mini digger which was part of Highways SLA was deemed not cost effective last year given its age and the repairs that were required to take place. Since then HBC have had a brand new one on hire from PD Agricultural. Following discussions with the department who have passed positive feedback on the hired machine we enquired about purchasing the machine to replace it permanently instead of having it on long term hire. The machine is available to purchase from the hire company for £13,750. We have received higher quotes for replica machines. The original machine was approved to be replaced as part of the 2024/2025 vehicle procurement report
