## Summary

Cumbria County Council is seeking to establish a non-operated plant framework for the period 2017-2021, aimed at supporting highway maintenance through the hire of various small plant equipment. The tender is categorised under construction machinery and equipment, and the framework is divided into three lots corresponding to local council boundaries. Key dates include the tender period which closed on 18th November 2016, and the contract period scheduled from 3rd March 2017 to 31st March 2021. The total estimated value of the framework is £400,000, and it employs an open procurement method for this initiative.

This procurement presents a lucrative opportunity for businesses in the construction and equipment rental sectors, particularly those capable of supplying non-operated machinery. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the framework is designed to enhance service delivery during peak periods or equipment breakdowns. Companies located in the North West of the United Kingdom will find this tender particularly relevant, as it covers districts including South Lakeland, Barrow, Eden, Carlisle, Allerdale, and Copeland.

## Notice

The Council wishes to procure a framework for the hire of a range of non-operated small plant to support an in house delivery model of highway maintenance. The service will be a top up service to supplement the Council's own small plant in times high workload, provide cover for breakdown and to supply infrequently used equipment. The framework will have 3 lots based on District Council boundaries as follows: * Lot 1 - South (includes South Lakeland and Barrow districts) * Lot 2 - East (includes Eden and Carlisle districts) * Lot 3 - West (includes Allerdale and Copeland districts) Register your interest to view the tender documentation and the online questionnaire https://www.the-chest.org.uk/
