Summary of the contracting process

East Riding of Yorkshire Council is selling a number of its used printing machines, including offset printing equipment. The sale is for buyers who want to purchase and collect the equipment from the council; items are offered on a “sold as seen” basis. This is a sale of goods rather than a contract to provide printing services or operate machinery. The equipment is associated with East Riding of Yorkshire, and collection is from the council. Suppliers dealing in used printing machinery, equipment resale or asset recovery may find the requirement relevant, provided they can arrange collection and are willing to buy equipment in its presented condition.

The council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The process reached the tender stage, when the buyer invited bids. The tender set an enquiry deadline of 6 October 2026 at 13:00 and a bid deadline of 7 October 2026 at 11:00. The stated value is £16,000, or £19,200 gross. The contract period is 9 to 23 October 2026. There is one lot covering the equipment. Bids are evaluated product by product, with the highest bid for each product forming the basis of award. Electronic submission is allowed.

This opportunity is suited to businesses that buy, resell, recover or otherwise handle used printing machinery, particularly offset presses. The buyer identifies the lot as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses, so smaller equipment dealers and resellers may compete alongside larger operators. Suppliers need to be prepared to assess used machinery on a “sold as seen” basis and to manage its collection from East Riding of Yorkshire Council. The sale is product-based, so buyers can focus their offers on individual items rather than needing to value the equipment as one combined purchase. The commercial proposition is the acquisition of used machinery for resale, reuse or recovery; the buyer’s stated award basis is the highest bid for each product.
