Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Renfrewshire Council procured the supply and delivery of one 18-tonne narrow-track refuse collection vehicle. This is a specialist municipal vehicle purchase for refuse collection, rather than a general fleet or waste-management services contract. The vehicle is for delivery in Renfrewshire, Scotland. The procurement was managed by the council, which is based in Paisley. Suppliers of refuse collection vehicles, including manufacturers and vehicle dealers able to provide the specified narrow-track configuration and arrange delivery to the council’s area, are the closest fit. The contract forms part of the council’s municipal vehicle requirements; its stated scope is limited to this single vehicle.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Dennis Eagle Limited. The council used a mini-competition under Scotland Excel’s framework for the supply and delivery of heavy and municipal vehicles, with quality weighted at 30% and price at 70%. The procurement record describes the route as a limited procedure without prior publication of a competition call. The contract was signed on 29 September 2026 and is active. Its value is £237,700. The recorded award is also active. The tender’s single lot is marked cancelled, while the award and contract are recorded as active; this is an inconsistency in the published status information. One bid was recorded, from an SME, and it was electronic.

For suppliers competing for a future requirement of this kind, credibility rests on being able to supply a purpose-built refuse collection vehicle in the required weight and narrow-track configuration, and to deliver it to Renfrewshire. The completed purchase demonstrates that the council buys this vehicle type through a mini-competition within the Scotland Excel heavy and municipal vehicles framework. A supplier would therefore need relevant framework access and the ability to compete on both vehicle quality and price, with quality carrying a substantial share of the evaluation. The recorded supplier is an SME, and the process received one bid, showing that a smaller specialist supplier can compete for this scale of municipal vehicle supply. The requirement is for vehicle supply and delivery, not broader waste collection operations.
