Summary of the contracting process

Broxtowe Borough Council purchased one used 2023 JCB 417 HT Industry Pro wheeled loading shovel, with a part-exchange arrangement. This is a goods procurement for a heavy construction and materials-handling vehicle, classified under motor vehicles for the transport of goods. Broxtowe Borough Council is the buying organisation, while Nottinghamshire County Council managed the procurement and acted as the process contact. The equipment is for delivery in the East Midlands. The requirement concerns the supply of a specified used JCB wheeled loading shovel rather than general plant hire, fleet management or maintenance services. Businesses relevant to this opportunity would therefore include authorised JCB dealers, used construction-plant suppliers and heavy-equipment specialists able to provide suitable machinery through a part-exchange transaction.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. It comprised one lot. Two active awards and contracts are recorded separately: Watling JCB Limited and T. C. Harrison Group Limited were each awarded a contract for the requirement. Each contract was signed on 19 May 2026, ran from 19 May 2026 to 12 August 2026, and was valued at £75,000 excluding VAT (£90,000 including VAT). The procurement description states that a waiver of the council’s contract procedure rules was raised and authorised. It also explains that an earlier contract details notice incorrectly stated that Watling JCB Limited alone had been awarded the contract; the current outcome records both suppliers separately.

This procurement indicates demand from Broxtowe Borough Council for specialist used construction plant, specifically a relatively recent JCB wheeled loading shovel acquired with part exchange. Suppliers competing when this requirement returns would need access to suitable used JCB equipment, the ability to verify age, condition, specification and provenance, and experience supplying heavy plant to public-sector or comparable operational users. A credible competitor would also need to handle part-exchange valuations and logistics, including collection or disposal of the equipment being exchanged and delivery of the replacement machine to the East Midlands. Authorised dealer status or established relationships with JCB, strong used-equipment sourcing, sound commercial valuation processes and capacity to complete a vehicle transaction would strengthen a supplier’s position.
