Tender description

To replace 1 existing vehicle currently used by City Highways with a vehicle more specific to the Service needs. To replace the existing vehicle that have reached or exceeded the replacement age and suffer from reliability problems, the number of defects and down have a significant impact on the ability of the Service to meet and maintain schedules. The specification has a number of additional safety features that were not available when the original vehicle was purchased, examples being: • safety pressure plates for the operator to stand on to ensure the crane cannot extend in to crush zones. • Rear steer configuration to improve manoeuvrability and access. • Road friendly rear air suspension.

About the buyer

Leicester City Council buys as a local authority, advertising most opportunities through East Midlands Tenders, its regional supplier portal. Larger contracts appear on Find a Tender instead, where any supplier awarded a contract must also register from April 2026. Some contracts run through outside frameworks, including ESPO and the Government Commercial Agency. Suppliers apply to those bodies directly to become approved framework suppliers. A two-year procurement plan for 2026 to 2028 is published on the council's open data site. Supplier selection also weighs social value, such as local job creation and environmental impact, alongside price.

UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).

Over the past 5 years, most of Leicester City Council's contract awards have been in transport services, construction work and software and information systems.
