## Summary

Great Yarmouth Borough Council procured one Timberwolf TW 280HBD wood chipper for its grounds-maintenance operations. The requirement was for the supply of a single machine, with a three-year warranty. This is a goods opportunity involving grounds-maintenance equipment, classified under CPV 43325100. Delivery was to the Great Yarmouth area in the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is Great Yarmouth Borough Council, a sub-central public authority. The equipment is relevant to manufacturers, authorised dealers, plant and machinery distributors, and businesses supplying professional wood chippers for local-authority grounds maintenance. The requirement is specific to the Timberwolf TW 280HBD model rather than a broad fleet, machinery or general landscaping services contract.

The procurement has been completed and the contract awarded. Great Yarmouth Borough Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. There was one lot. George Browns Limited was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 3 August 2026 and ran from 13 to 14 August 2026. Its value was £26,995 excluding VAT, or £32,394 including VAT. The contract is recorded as active. The published process concerns a single purchase rather than a multi-supplier arrangement or framework. The award covered the Timberwolf TW 280HBD wood chipper and related delivery to the Great Yarmouth area. The procurement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than competitive tendering.

This procurement demonstrates that Great Yarmouth Borough Council buys specialist grounds-maintenance machinery as a discrete equipment purchase. Suppliers seeking to compete for a comparable future requirement would need to provide the specified Timberwolf model, or demonstrate an ability to supply equivalent professional wood-chipping equipment where the specification permits. Credible competitors would include authorised machinery dealers, manufacturers’ representatives, and plant-equipment distributors with access to this type of machine. The selected supplier was an SME, showing that a smaller business can fulfil this focused council requirement. Relevant commercial preparation would include reliable access to the required model, public-sector quotation and contract experience, delivery capability in the Great Yarmouth area, and the ability to provide the required three-year warranty.
