Summary of the contracting process

Poringland Parish Council is seeking the supply of grounds equipment, classified as agricultural machinery. The purchase is for the council’s grounds-related needs. The buying organisation is Poringland Parish Council, based in Poringland, Norfolk. The delivery location is stated as the United Kingdom. This is a goods requirement rather than a works or service contract. The procurement is organised as a single lot, so suppliers are being asked to compete for the equipment supply as one package. The description identifies the purchase as grounds equipment supply; the detailed equipment specification is available in the attached bidding document.

The council reached the tender stage and invited offers through an open competition below the UK procurement threshold. The deadline for questions was 30 October 2026 at 23:59 UTC, and completed tenders were due by 2 November 2026 at 23:59 UTC. Electronic submission was allowed, with tenders to be emailed to the council. The contract period was set for 1 December 2026. The estimated value is £55,000 excluding VAT, or £66,000 including VAT. The procurement is a single lot, with an evaluation basis described in the attached document. The tender allowed submissions from suppliers based in the reserved participation location, and the lot was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.

This opportunity is most relevant to suppliers of grounds equipment and agricultural machinery able to provide the equipment specified for the council. It is structured as one lot, making it a single supply opportunity rather than separate equipment packages. Small and medium-sized businesses are expressly considered suitable for the lot. Suppliers should review the attached bidding document to establish the required equipment, technical specification and evaluation basis before deciding whether the package matches their range and ability to fulfil the supply. The procurement calls for goods; it does not describe installation, maintenance or other services as part of the requirement. The buyer identifies Poringland Parish Council as the customer, with delivery stated within the United Kingdom.
