Summary of the contracting process

The Wheatley Housing Group Limited procured grounds-maintenance machinery and equipment to support its neighbourhood environmental teams, specialist improvement teams and arborists in keeping neighbourhoods and communal areas clean, green and safe. The requirement covers the management and maintenance of the group’s grounds-maintenance equipment and machinery, alongside access to a full catalogue of equipment through a single supplier. Delivery is required across the regions in which Wheatley Group operates. This is a goods procurement for housing and community maintenance, with equipment provision linked to ongoing management and maintenance rather than a purchase of machinery alone.

The procurement is complete and a contract has been awarded to FRASER C ROBB LIMITED, an SME. The contract was signed on 1 October 2026 and is valued at £2.8 million. The stated contract term is 720 days, with two further 12-month renewal periods available. The competition used an open, two-stage procedure, with price and quality evaluation followed by a post-tender negotiation. Quality carried 70% of the evaluation and price 30%. Bids were due by 15 July 2026. The requirement was arranged as one lot, although the lot is marked cancelled while the award and contract are recorded as active. Four bids were received; all four came from SMEs.

The award shows Wheatley Group’s demand for a supplier able to cover a broad grounds-maintenance machinery and equipment catalogue, while managing and maintaining equipment used by neighbourhood teams and arborists across its operating regions. A credible competitor would need the capacity and product range to act as a single source across the group, together with the service capability to support equipment throughout its use. The successful supplier was an SME, and all four bids came from SMEs, indicating that smaller firms competed for this scale of requirement. Suppliers should also be prepared to demonstrate strong quality alongside competitive pricing: quality accounted for the larger share of the evaluation, with price also assessed. This buyer’s requirement combines equipment supply with continuing maintenance and management.
