Grounds-maintenance equipment

Description

This is an invitation to tender for the provision of vehicles and machinery to support a grounds maintenance contract. For vehicle procurement various pricing options are requested and will be assessed (i.e. Lease v. Outright Purchase for vehicles). If the Lease Vehicle option is chosen this will run for a term of either 3 or 5 years. A supplier can bid for more than 1 Lot and we are looking to award 1 provider for each Lot. Specific vehicles are required in order to carry out the grounds maintenance operations successfully. Evaluation of a leave v. purchase option will be considered as part of the tender evaluation process, and as such the period of contract will either be 3 or 5 years for the leasing option and no specific end date for purchase option. A heavy duty tractor is required in order to carry out the grounds maintenance operations successfully. Equipment in this Lot includes ride on mowers, mini diggers, water bowser and trailers. Evaluation of tenders will be based on purchasing the machinery. Equipment in this Lot includes pedestrian rotary and cylinder mowers, strimmer, backpack and hand held blowers and hedge trimmers. Evaluation of tenders will be based on purchasing the machinery.
