Summary of the contracting process

South Lanarkshire Council’s Fleet Services procured the supply and delivery of 11 Karcher MC250 sweepers, as part of its wider requirement for heavy vehicles over 7.5 tonnes. The vehicles replace ageing fleet. This is a goods purchase involving heavy municipal vehicles (CPV 34100000), rather than a vehicle maintenance or general transport service. Delivery is for the Council in South Lanarkshire, with Hamilton identified as the relevant locality. The requirement was placed as a call-off from Scotland Excel’s Heavy and Municipal Vehicles framework. The framework supports participating public bodies in purchasing vehicles through agreed supplier rates and collaborative competition.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. South Lanarkshire Council made a direct award call-off under the Scotland Excel Heavy and Municipal Vehicles framework; the source describes the route as a direct award, although the method field also labels the procedure open. A M Phillip Trucktech Limited was selected. The contract value is £62,150, and it was signed on 22 September 2026. One bid was recorded, from an SME. The contract is for the supply and delivery of 11 sweepers as a direct replacement for existing fleet. No separate award date or contract end date is recorded. The framework’s stated period was 1 January 2022 to 31 December 2023, with two possible 12-month extensions, and it was further extended to 30 September 2026.

This award indicates recurring demand from South Lanarkshire Council for heavy vehicles over 7.5 tonnes to replace ageing fleet, including specialist municipal sweepers. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement would need to provide suitable heavy vehicles and manage delivery to the Council. The buyer used the Scotland Excel Heavy and Municipal Vehicles framework and relied on competition and supplier-rate comparisons within that collaborative arrangement to demonstrate value for money. Framework access and competitive pricing would therefore be commercially relevant to suppliers seeking similar call-offs. The award went to A M Phillip Trucktech Limited, and one bid was recorded, showing that an SME supplier competed successfully in this procurement. The specific purchase comprised 11 Karcher MC250 sweepers.
