What is being bought

Published requirement description

This framework is for the provision of the bulk de-icing rock salt to support Sandwell MBC and Dudley MBC in their front-line winter service delivery. This procurement is being undertaken by Sandwell MBC, acting as lead Authority, on behalf of Sandwell and Dudley. The supplied materials are to be delivered to the individual contracting authority’s storage depots detailed in the specification. The proposed framework agreement is for the period 25 May 2021 to 24 May 2023 with the option to extend for 2 x 12 months. In accordance with the framework agreement, each contracting authority will enter into its own call-off contract. Call-off contracts will be awarded under the Framework by way of direct award to the sole, appointed Supplier. Volumes may increase or decrease dependent on legislation changes, weather conditions and service requirements, therefore, no level of business is guaranteed. Wolverhampton Council and Walsall MBC may also access this framework.
