## Summary

Mid Devon District Council is procuring servicing and ad hoc repair services for handheld and small plant machinery used by its Street Scene and Grounds Maintenance teams. The machinery supports statutory and operational work across the district, including grass cutting, strimming, hedge maintenance, arboriculture, cleansing and general grounds maintenance. The requirement is for machinery repair and maintenance services, covering the council’s wide range of equipment rather than the supply of new machinery. Work will be delivered across the Mid Devon district in Devon. This opportunity will suit engineering, agricultural machinery, grounds-care equipment and plant maintenance specialists able to support operational teams using varied handheld and small plant machinery.

The procurement has reached tender: the council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It comprises one lot. Enquiries had to be submitted by 23 September 2026 at 5:00pm, and offers were due by 9 October 2026 at 12:00pm. The contract is scheduled to run from 16 November 2026 to 15 November 2029, with an option for one 12-month renewal, allowing a maximum end date of 15 November 2030. The estimated value is £66,666.67 excluding VAT and £80,000 including VAT. Evaluation is weighted 60% for quality and 40% for price. Electronic submission is allowed, with tender documents and communications handled through the stated tendering system.

This requirement suits suppliers with practical capability in servicing, diagnosing and repairing a varied range of handheld and small plant machinery used for grounds maintenance, arboriculture, cleansing and related operational work. Relevant businesses may include specialist machinery repair workshops, agricultural and horticultural equipment dealers, plant maintenance contractors and mobile engineering teams. Suppliers will need the capacity to support a council’s recurring operational requirements across Mid Devon and to respond to ad hoc repair needs, rather than undertaking a single repair project. The procurement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises, so smaller specialist providers may be well placed to compete.
