UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Council of the City of Wakefield procured one KUHN TBE 222 flail mower for its operational requirements. This is a goods purchase in the mowers and agricultural machinery market, with the requirement classified under CPV 16310000. The scope is the supply of a single flail mower rather than a wider maintenance, leasing or landscaping service. The purchasing organisation is the Council of the City of Wakefield, a sub-central public authority. Delivery is within the United Kingdom. Businesses relevant to this requirement include manufacturers, authorised dealers, agricultural machinery distributors and suppliers able to provide a KUHN TBE 222 or an equivalent mower meeting the buyer’s specification.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a below-threshold procedure, with the specific method recorded as unknown, and comprised one completed lot. RFS (Ripon) Limited was selected as supplier and received the active award. The contract was signed on 21 July 2026 and runs from 4 September 2026 to 3 September 2027. Its gross value is £11,454 including tax, in GBP. The contract is active. The published data identifies the purchase and selected supplier but does not set out award criteria, evaluation weightings, tender deadlines or a separate award date. This outcome confirms a direct purchase of one flail mower rather than a multi-lot machinery programme.

This procurement is useful market evidence for businesses supplying professional mowing and agricultural machinery to local authorities. A credible future supplier would need to source, sell or manufacture KUHN TBE 222 flail mowers, or demonstrate that its proposed equipment meets the buyer’s operational requirement. Relevant capability includes understanding flail-mower specifications, advising on suitable equipment, handling procurement and delivery, and supporting the authority with product information and after-sales arrangements. Agricultural machinery dealers and distributors with established manufacturer relationships are particularly well placed. The award to RFS (Ripon) Limited, recorded as a large supplier, indicates that the requirement was met by an established commercial machinery business rather than a specialist service contractor. Competitors should monitor this buyer’s equipment requirements and be ready to evidence dependable supply and product suitability.
