Summary of the contracting process

The recent procurement process conducted by Dacorum Borough Council involved the acquisition of five Trimax FX-155 flair decks mowers intended to update their aging fleet. This procurement falls under the industry category of goods, specifically focusing on mowers, and was completed through a direct procurement method below the competition threshold. The contracting took place in the UK, specifically in Hemel Hempstead, with a contract period ranging from 13 January 2026 to 13 April 2026. The main examination stage for this procurement was the Award stage, and the contract was officially signed on 13 January 2026.

This tender presents significant opportunities for suppliers in the gardening and landscaping equipment industry, particularly those capable of providing high-quality mowers. Businesses like P. Tuckwell Limited, a large supplier based in Woodbridge, successfully secured the contract, highlighting the chance for similar companies to engage with public authorities for direct procurement processes. Enterprises equipped with reliable machinery that can meet local government needs without the necessity for extended competitive bidding will find ventures like this an excellent fit for expansion efforts, particularly in sub-central government markets within the United Kingdom.
