Official UK procurement notice
CO6088 - Supply and Fitment of Tyres
Authority: Tower Hamlets
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionWe propose entering into a five-year tyre supply and fitment contract, The Contract Period is initially for a period of 3 years, although the Authority reserves the right to extend the Contract on the same terms for further periods of 12 months, up to 24 months, making a total possible Contract Period of 5 years. This duration is expected to yield significant financial benefits, as suppliers are incentivised to offer more competitive rates due to the continuity of service and the opportunity to develop a deeper familiarity with our fleet and operational needs. Oversight and financial management of this contract will fall under the Fleet department, supporting all Council departments that rely on vehicles. The contract will improve Operator Licensing compliance, ensuring we meet all regulatory requirements. Additionally, the supplier will be required to provide comprehensive reporting systems, which will enable us to manage the service more effectively. Enhanced driver engagement and training initiatives from the supplier will also be considered for the contract to improve overall tyre management and safety.
- The authority expects to re-tender this requirement around 18 Sept 2030, 23:59 BST.
- No preliminary market engagement: A preliminary market engagement notice was not published for this procurement as sufficient engagement and research had already been undertaken prior to the tender process. Informal consultations were carried out during the project planning stage to assess supplier capability, service delivery approaches, and indicative costs. It was determined that a further formal preliminary market engagement would not add produce new insights. Proceeding directly to tender was therefore considered a proportionate and efficient approach that maintains both transparency and value for money.
