What is being bought

Published requirement description

The current contract for Fleet Maintenance is due to expire on the 31st of March 2025 and therefore NCC are required to tender for a new contract. This is a statutory requirement, and the successful contractor will need to be approved by the UK Traffic Commissioner as one of the terms and conditions of NCC’s Goods Vehicle Operators Licence, without which NCC would be unable to operate any large goods vehicles.

This tender is for the full maintenance of Newport owned fleet including the EV fleet. A full and detailed specification can be found within the attachments section.

  • Recurrence: Next notice will be published 3.5 years unless the contract is terminated for any reason as per the Terms and Conditions.

The key contract specification is for the contractor to operate from a facility within the city boundary in order to minimise transport time between their facility and NCC’s two main hubs at Telford Street Depot and the Waste Disposal Site. This helps to maximise operational efficiency by reducing travel time, the time vehicles are non-operational (down-time) and minimises emissions from diesel/petrol vehicles.

The contractor will be required to carry out both scheduled maintenance as specified by NCC and unplanned maintenance to vehicle faults/breakdowns as they are reported and provide a 24/7 breakdown and vehicle recovery service.

Planned maintenance comprises scheduled safety inspections, services and MOT’s as required by law and in accordance with terms and conditions of NCC’s Goods Vehicle Operators Licence at specified intervals dependant on the type of vehicle and to attend to any vehicle at any time when requested to do so by NCC.

As part of the scheduled maintenance process, the contractor is required to submit their hourly labour rate and specify times taken to carry out various tasks for each category of vehicle. This allows NCC to calculate how much the annual planned maintenance of the fleet will cost.
