## Summary

Chorleywood Parish Council, based in Chorleywood, United Kingdom, has completed a procurement process titled "Replacement of Kubota excavator used for grave digging." This project falls under the industry category of construction machinery and equipment, focusing on the delivery within the UK. The process is in the award stage, dated 28th October 2025, with the contract agreement signed on 13th August 2025. The tender employed a direct procurement method due to its below-threshold value, seeking to replace and service a Kubota excavator specifically used for grave digging activities.

This tender presents significant potential for SMEs specialising in construction machinery supply and servicing to expand their market footprint. Companies with expertise in heavy machinery sales and services are especially well-positioned, particularly those capable of operating under direct, non-competitive procurement frameworks. Partnering with local councils like Chorleywood Parish Council can enhance business visibility and lead to future opportunities within the public sector, providing a steady stream of potential contracts and collaborations. Boss Plant Sales Limited, an SME in the Tring area, has successfully secured this contract, focusing on providing a new excavator and a comprehensive five-year service package, augmented by a part exchange agreement for the existing machinery.
