Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Shrewsbury Town Council invites tenders for the lease hire of a compact road sweeper. This open competition targets the goods category, specifically motor vehicles, and involves sub-central government public authority. The requirement has emerged due to the council's new responsibilities for street cleaning within the local parish, effective from 1st April 2026. Key dates include a deadline for tender submission on 20th February 2026 and an enquiry period ending on 13th February 2026. The tender is active and the chosen vehicle must be operational by 31st March 2026. The procurement method applied is open competition below the threshold, without electronic submissions, implying the use of traditional submission processes.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specializing in vehicle leasing or manufacturing, particularly those focusing on municipal vehicle needs. Companies with a proven track record in delivering similar equipment and capable of offering competitive pricing will find this opportunity suitable. Given the long-term lease options (1, 3, or 5 years), businesses can leverage this contract to secure stable revenue streams. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find the tender accessible, given the suitability aspect highlighted for such entities, and are encouraged to submit proposals that align with the council's specifications and cost criteria.
