## Summary

The North Yorkshire County Council is seeking suppliers for the "Winter Equipment Framework" to ensure the availability of essential winter-maintenance vehicles and materials ahead of the winter season. This procurement process is currently at the Award stage, with the contract valued at £480,000. The contract period is set to commence on 1st October 2020 and will run until 30th September 2024. The tender was published on 13th July 2020, with a submission deadline that closed on 12th August 2020. The primary delivery location for this procurement is the Yorkshire and the Humber region, focusing on goods required for winter road maintenance, including snowploughs and snowblowers.

This tender presents significant opportunities for SMEs specialising in the provision of winter maintenance equipment and materials, particularly those with the capacity to deliver goods to remote areas. Businesses engaged in manufacturing or supplying snow-removal equipment and related materials would find this tender especially relevant. Participation in this framework agreement may enhance supplier visibility and facilitate ongoing contracts with public authorities in the region, thus contributing to business growth and operational sustainability.

## Notice

North Yorkshire is England's largest county, with approximately 8500 kilometres of roads. The Authority is responsible for the maintenance of all publicly maintainable highways and roads that do not fall within the remit of Highways England (motorways and trunk roads). This responsibility is divided between seven highways area offices, a private contractor, as well as several smaller farmer contractors, who help provide an essential service in areas that are often not accessible to larger vehicles and equipment. The Authority is seeking to put in place an arrangement to procure winter equipment in advance of the next winter season to ensure the Authority has the appropriate equipment in time in order to undertake critical repairs and maintenance of the County's roads and highways, therefore maintaining services and minimising risk and disruption to North Yorkshire residents. Additional information: Any contracting authority created as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Authority may access this framework agreement. The Invitation to Tender should be accessed through YORtender (https://www.yortender.co.uk/), the procurement portal for local authorities in Yorkshire and the Humber.
