What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionWithin the County of Powys, there are 990km miles of county roads and 430km miles of trunk roads serviced during the winter months, the Council undertakes winter maintenance activities on these roads. There activities include snow clearance and the spreading of grit using a range of Council owned and hired vehicles and other equipment.
For the Council to undertake some of these activates, 6x4, 4x4 and 4x2 gritters are required and the Council’s intention is to hire these from a single source between September and April during the agreement period.

Published award criteria (2)
- Quality: 60
- Price: 40
- Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “Framework Agreement for the hire of winter maintenance vehicles” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 1 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
