Summary of the contracting process

Armagh, Banbridge & Craigavon Borough Council procured the supply, delivery and installation of two static waste compactors at BT61 7NP. The work also included decommissioning the two existing compactors and moving them to an adjacent yard. The new equipment needed to be compatible with the site’s existing infrastructure and equipment, so suppliers were expected to assess the site and the removal requirements. This is a goods contract centred on waste-compacting equipment, with associated installation, removal and relocation work.

The procurement was completed through an open competition below the relevant threshold. The tender closed on 7 July 2026, and the contract was awarded to Grade-All International Ltd. The award was active, and the contract was signed on 13 August 2026. Its recorded value is £48,480 gross. The contract period runs from 14 August to 31 October 2026; the tender had estimated a longer lot period, from 20 July 2026 to 20 October 2027. Evaluation was weighted 80% on price and 20% on quality. The procurement covered a single lot for both compactors and the associated work.

This award demonstrates demand from the council for a supplier able to provide two static compactors as a compatible package with delivery, installation, decommissioning and relocation of existing equipment. Suppliers competing for the same requirement in future would need credible experience in supplying and fitting static waste compactors, understanding site infrastructure, and safely removing and moving existing units. The work favours businesses able to coordinate equipment supply with practical site services, rather than equipment suppliers without installation and removal capability. Grade-All International Ltd, an SME, was selected under an evaluation that placed substantially greater weight on price than quality, so a credible competitor would need both a competitive commercial offer and evidence of delivery quality.
