Summary of the contracting process

Aberdeenshire Council procured servicing, maintenance and repairs for waste and recycling compactor and rollpack units in Aberdeenshire. The requirement covered two service areas: mobile compaction skip units, and mobile and fixed rollpack units. This is a specialist equipment-maintenance service for waste-management assets, requiring suppliers able to inspect, service, maintain and repair the relevant compaction equipment. The council was the buying organisation, with the work delivered across Aberdeenshire. Both service areas formed part of the same procurement and were awarded to the same supplier. The classification used is CPV 50530000, covering repair and maintenance services for machinery.

The procurement is complete and both lots were awarded to R & G Ironside. Lot 1, for mobile compaction skip units, was awarded on 10 August 2026 and has an active contract worth £14,580; its contract period runs from 27 July 2026 to 26 July 2029, with a possible 12-month renewal. Lot 2, for mobile and fixed rollpack units, was also awarded on 10 August 2026 and has an active contract worth £7,100 over the same period, with a possible 12-month renewal. It used a selective restricted procedure, with invitations issued on 1 July 2026 and submissions due by 1 July 2026. Suitability, economic and technical criteria applied, with supporting details in the SPD.

This award demonstrates a requirement for a specialist machinery-maintenance business serving public-sector waste operations. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical capability in servicing and repairing mobile compaction skip units, mobile rollpack units and fixed rollpack units, with enough engineering capacity to cover equipment across Aberdeenshire. The buyer assessed supplier suitability, economic standing and technical ability, so businesses would need evidence across all three areas rather than technical expertise alone. The procurement attracted two bids for the compaction-skip lot and three for the rollpack lot; two bids in each lot came from SMEs. The successful supplier, R & G Ironside, is an SME, indicating that the requirement can suit a suitably capable smaller specialist.
