UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

South Kesteven District Council procured a supply of bins to replenish stock, with the purchase prompted by extended lead times associated with recent oil price fluctuations. This is a goods requirement for delivery within the South Kesteven area of Lincolnshire. The council is the buying organisation and the procurement covered one completed requirement. The supplied items were classified under materials including plastic and rubber, indicating a focus on physical bin products and related material components rather than installation, servicing or construction. Businesses relevant to this requirement include manufacturers, wholesalers and distributors able to supply bins and manage delivery to a local authority. The procurement was intended to support the council’s stock position during a period of supply-chain pressure.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to BRITISHBINS LTD, an SME. It used a below-threshold limited competition, with one completed lot. The contract was signed on 21 April 2026 and runs from 21 April 2026 to 21 August 2026. Its value is £75,000 excluding VAT, or £90,000 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The available outcome records identify the selected supplier and the contract value, but do not set out a separate award date or detailed scoring criteria. The requirement was evaluated through the limited-competition route rather than an open procedure. This was a short-term stock supply contract for South Kesteven District Council.

This procurement indicates demand from South Kesteven District Council for a supplier able to provide bins as physical goods and respond to stock replenishment needs. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need dependable access to suitable bin products and the materials covered by the classification, together with the operational capacity to fulfil local-authority orders and deliver within the council’s area. The contract was handled through a below-threshold limited competition, so businesses targeting similar work should be prepared for a focused competitive process rather than relying on a large open tender. BRITISHBINS LTD’s SME status shows that the requirement was deliverable by a smaller specialist supplier, making it relevant to bin manufacturers, stockists and distributors with reliable supply chains.
