## Summary

The procurement process for the purchase of Wheeled Loading Shovels was undertaken by Lincolnshire County Council, located in Lincoln, UK. The contract, titled "Purchase of Wheeled Loading Shovels," falls under the industry category of construction and quarrying machinery, with key locations being Grantham and Sleaford in Lincolnshire. The process followed an open procedure and was covered by international agreements like GPA and CPTPP. The tender was initiated and completed in early 2026, with the contract awarded to FILTERMECH PLANT SALES LIMITED on 16 February 2026. The procurement stage progressed from tender to award, targeting a procurement class of goods, with the final contract period set to end on 17 April 2026.

This tender represents a significant business opportunity, particularly for companies involved in manufacturing and supplying large machinery and vehicles, such as loading shovels. It caters well to larger enterprises already established in the sector, given the contract's value exceeding the threshold. The open procedure allows for transparent competition, and supplier engagement through electronic submissions was encouraged. The procurement was accessible to SMEs, as evidenced by FILTERMECH PLANT SALES LIMITED’s involvement, although it may require scale, reliability, and the capacity to supply substantial, high-quality goods suitable for waste transfer operations across two major sites.
