## Summary

The Coventry City Council has successfully awarded a contract titled "COV - On-Board Weighing Technology for Existing Refuse Vehicles," focusing on the installation of on-board weighing technology on its fleet of refuse collection vehicles. This contract, classified under the CPV code for electrical equipment for engines and vehicles, is set for a maximum duration of four years, starting from November 18, 2019, and ending on November 17, 2021. The tender, which followed an open procurement process, was awarded on November 6, 2019, to Vehicle Weighing Solutions Ltd, with a total contract value of £125,000.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses in the technology and vehicle accessories sector, particularly those specialising in weighing systems or similar equipment. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) could find this contract particularly accessible, as the tendering process was open to a wide range of suppliers, potentially fostering competition and innovation in the market. Given the potential for additional installations and operational changes, businesses that can offer scalable solutions and adaptability to the Council's evolving needs may thrive in this environment.
