The procurement falls within specialist vehicles and is categorised as goods. Delivery is in Yorkshire and the Humber, for a council based in Scunthorpe. The requirement is specific rather than a broad fleet or general vehicle supply contract: businesses relevant to it are manufacturers, authorised distributors or specialist vehicle suppliers able to provide an arbor hoist of the stated capacity. The named public-sector buyer is North Lincolnshire Council, whose operations are likely to require purpose-built equipment for tree-care or related services. The requirement was handled as a North Lincolnshire Council lot within the TPPL/NEPO HGV arrangement. This procurement is complete and has been awarded. The tender submission deadline was 23 January 2026. North Lincolnshire Council evaluated the requirement through a tender process for goods, and the award was made on 28 August 2026. Versalift United Kingdom Limited was selected for the contract at £161,635. The contract period runs from 29 August 2026 to 29 September 2026. The published requirement concerned one 3.5-tonne arbor hoist, with the same value recorded for the tender and award. The process was associated with a specific lot for an arbor hoist within the TPPL North Lincolnshire Council NEPO HGV procurement. The procurement was marked complete after the active award was recorded. For suppliers assessing future demand, this award shows that North Lincolnshire Council purchases highly specialised arboricultural vehicles rather than standard heavy goods vehicles alone. A credible competitor would need to supply a complete 3.5-tonne arbor hoist and demonstrate the technical ability to meet a tightly defined vehicle specification. Relevant businesses are likely to include specialist vehicle manufacturers, conversion companies and established distributors with access to suitable equipment, engineering support and after-sales servicing. The buyer’s assessment that the opportunity was not suitable for SMEs indicates a requirement aligned with larger suppliers or businesses with substantial production, distribution or delivery capacity. Experience supplying public-sector or fleet customers, and the ability to deliver within the Yorkshire and the Humber area, would strengthen a future response. ## Notice 1 x 3.5t Arbor Hoist ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7374de8a-5ed1-4028-bcd0-b51e63355a8c | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 11 Sep 2026 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 28 Aug 2026 | | Contract period | 29 Aug 2026 - 29 Sep 2026 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £161,635 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £161,635 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | North Lincolnshire Council | | Locality | SCUNTHORPE | | Postcode area | Doncaster | | Postcode | DN15 6NL | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE1 East Yorkshire and Northern Lincolnshire | | ITL 3 | TLE13 North and North East Lincolnshire | | Local authority | North Lincolnshire | | Electoral ward | Town | | Westminster constituency | Scunthorpe | | Delivery location | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | Versalift | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 34 - Transport equipment and auxiliary products to transportation ### Codes - 34114000 - Specialist vehicles ## Release History - 11 Sep 2026 at 16:20 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7374de8a-5ed1-4028-bcd0-b51e63355a8c ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7374de8a-5ed1-4028-bcd0-b51e63355a8c 11th September 2026 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.delta-esourcing.com/delta/respondToList.html?noticeId=1063097724 Please follow this link to view the notice. ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
