Summary of the contracting process

East Hampshire District Council bought one specialist food-waste collection vehicle for its waste collection service. The requirement is for a purpose-built vehicle rather than general HGV supply, within the broader specialist vehicle market (CPV 34144000). The council is based in Petersfield, and delivery is in East Hampshire, in the South East of England. The procurement was run through Lot 2 of the North East Procurement Organisation HGV and Specialist Vehicles framework. This indicates a requirement for a vehicle suitable for collecting food waste, supplied under an established public-sector vehicle framework. The available description does not set out technical specifications or operating requirements for the vehicle.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Trest Limited. The contract value is £124,288. It was signed on 9 July 2026; no contract end date or duration is stated. East Hampshire District Council used a further competition under Lot 2 of the North East Procurement Organisation HGV and Specialist Vehicles framework, using a limited procedure without a prior call for competition. Two bids were recorded. The published evaluation split was 60% price and 40% quality. The procurement was organised as one lot, although that lot is marked cancelled while the linked award and contract are active. The recorded outcome is therefore an active award and contract to Trest Limited, rather than a cancelled award.

For suppliers tracking future specialist food-waste vehicle demand from East Hampshire District Council, this award shows a single-vehicle requirement met through a further competition on the North East Procurement Organisation HGV and Specialist Vehicles framework. A credible competitor would need access to the relevant framework route and the ability to supply a specialist food-waste collection vehicle that meets the council’s quality requirements. Price carried greater weight than quality in this competition, so a competitive offer would need to balance cost with a convincing technical response. The contract was awarded to Trest Limited, a small and medium-sized enterprise, demonstrating that a smaller supplier competed successfully. Vehicle manufacturers, specialist bodybuilders and framework suppliers able to assemble and deliver a compliant vehicle are the closest fit; the specific vehicle specification is not described here.
