## Summary

The Westmorland and Furness Council is seeking external assistance for gully cleansing services on winter gritting routes. The procurement process titled 'Gully Cleansing Services' falls under the services category with a contract value of £240,000. The tender, using an open procedure, has a tender period ending on 12th January 2024 and a contract period from 5th February 2024 to 31st March 2025 in England. The buying organisation is the Westmorland and Furness Council.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses providing gully cleaning and emptying services, especially those with expertise in supporting winter gritting operations. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are well-suited for this tender. Businesses that can efficiently handle routine and reactive gully works during adverse weather conditions have a chance to secure this contract, which aims to address the increased demand for gully cleansing services during autumn and winter months in the United Kingdom.

## Notice

Westmorland and Furness Council requires assistance from an external supplier, to provide support with gully cleansing services on the Priority 1 and Priority 2 winter gritting routes. The Council has in house gully cleansing capability; however, resources are limited, and internal operations teams are struggling to keep up with demand on both routine and reactive gully works. Moving into autumn and winter months, the demand on the service increases as weather conditions deteriorate. There is a greater risk of hazards presented by surface water runoff and flooding from blocked drains, which increases the risk of ice during freezing conditions.
