Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by SE Trains Limited involves the replacement of forklift trucks at the Ramsgate Depot. This award notice, dated 6 February 2026, notes that the process is now complete, with a contract commencing on 1 March 2026 and running until 1 March 2027. The procurement, categorised under utilities, specifically loadbearing equipment, engaged a direct method below the competition threshold. SE Trains Limited is based in London and operates as a public undertaking. The primary business opportunity arose from the need to maintain safety and efficiency in the depot operations, following asset assessments. The contract was awarded to Jungheinrich UK Limited, based in Milton Keynes, indicating it was deemed best suited to supply these goods.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in manufacturing and supplying loadbearing equipment, specifically forklifts. Companies that are small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to engage in such procurement opportunities, as suitability considerations have been highlighted. Suppliers in regions such as the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East, and South West should regard this sector as ripe for entry and expansion. The approach of a direct procurement method below the standard competition requirements implies a significant opening for firms with established reputations and capabilities in the specific industrial equipment sector.
