The goods are divided into five lots: out-front rotary mowers, walk-behind weed brushes, 18-foot beavertail trailers, a wide-area mower and a remote-controlled rotary mower. This is a supply-and-delivery requirement, rather than a works or service contract. Suppliers may find the opportunity relevant if they manufacture, distribute or supply grounds-care machinery, specialist mowing equipment, weed-control brushes or trailers, and can arrange delivery to the buyer’s required locations. The buyer invited offers through a competitive flexible procedure. The procurement is divided into five lots, each evaluated on cost alone, weighted at 100%. The submission deadline set by the buyer was 16 November 2026 at 15:00, and the enquiry deadline was 11 November 2026 at 15:00. The stated contract period for every lot runs from 7 December 2026 to 31 March 2027. The overall estimated value is £537,000 excluding VAT (£644,400 including VAT). Lot values excluding VAT are: out-front rotary mowers £360,000; walk-behind weed brushes £34,000; 18-foot beavertail trailers £90,000; wide-area mower £18,000; remote-controlled rotary mower £35,000. Options are indicated for each lot. This opportunity suits suppliers with the product range and operational capacity to provide one or more of the specified grounds-maintenance machines and equipment, and to deliver them in Northern Ireland within the contract period. The lot structure gives specialist suppliers a route to compete for individual equipment types rather than requiring a single supplier to cover the full range. Since cost is the stated sole award factor for each lot, competitive pricing will be central to bids. The requirement names specific machine types, including out-front and remote-controlled rotary mowers, walk-behind weed brushes and beavertail trailers. The procurement information does not establish particular accreditation, technical standards, staffing levels or prior-experience requirements; suppliers should consult the stated tender documentation for the detailed specifications and participation conditions. ## Notice Housing Executive Direct requires a contract for the supply and delivery of grounds machinery.
