Summary of the contracting process

Wrexham County Borough Council procured one refuse-collection vehicle: an NTM Polybody with RS360 Bin Life mounted on a 5-tonne chassis. The requirement is for a complete vehicle suitable for refuse collection, rather than a general vehicle supply. Delivery and use are associated with Wrexham, Wales. The buying organisation is Wrexham County Borough Council, a Welsh local authority. The selected supplier, NTM-GB Ltd, is based in Kidderminster and is the manufacturer or specialist supplier named for this requirement. This opportunity is relevant to vehicle manufacturers, specialist refuse-collection equipment suppliers, commercial vehicle dealers, and businesses able to provide an integrated body, bin-lift system and suitable 5-tonne chassis. It may also interest firms that support municipal waste-collection fleets with comparable vehicle configurations.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to NTM-GB Ltd on 20 July 2026. Wrexham County Borough Council made a direct award under the TPPL Framework, using a below-threshold procedure without competition. The award value is £93,500 excluding VAT, or £112,200 including VAT. The contract was signed on 31 July 2026 and runs from 4 August 2026 to 30 April 2027. The purchase covers one vehicle. It was evaluated as a goods procurement and the route was a direct award rather than an open competition. The contract is active. The requirement was handled as a framework call-off, with the vehicle associated with the refuse-collection vehicle category. NTM-GB Ltd is the sole named awardee for this procurement.

This award demonstrates a defined council requirement for a specialist refuse-collection vehicle combining an NTM Polybody, RS360 Bin Life system and 5-tonne chassis. Businesses competing for comparable municipal fleet requirements would need the capability to supply the complete configuration, or to coordinate the chassis, body and bin-lift components as an integrated vehicle. Relevant experience would include supplying refuse vehicles to local authorities, meeting operational requirements for waste-collection fleets, and supporting delivery of a finished vehicle rather than isolated equipment. Familiarity with the TPPL Framework and its relevant refuse-collection vehicle lot would be commercially important, because this purchase used a framework direct-award route without competition. Vehicle manufacturers, specialist bodybuilders and established fleet suppliers are therefore the closest comparable competitors.
