Despite a previous tender cancellation due to insufficient compliant bids, the council has re-opened the market opportunity under the planning stage. The framework agreement employs an open procedure and seeks bids scored on both price and quality, with a focus on delivering social value. The tender period concludes on 23 February 2026, while the award period culminates on 13 March 2026. This procurement process provides opportunities for suppliers to secure long-term contracts with Rochdale Council and its partner authorities, including Stockport, St Helens, and others under STAR Procurement and AGMA. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the construction, machinery hire, and fencing industries to expand their service offerings and geographic footprint. Small to medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community and social enterprises (VCSEs) stand to benefit, as suitability criteria highlight their inclusion.
