Vehicle Inspection, Maintenance, Recovery and Repair Services
Authority: Buckinghamshire Council (Local council)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionThe Authority's requirements for the provision of vehicle inspection, maintenance and repair services for a mixed fleet of vehicles ranging from 26 tonne refuse collection vehicles and 12 tonne food waste vehicles to light good vehicles such a caged tippers and 3.5t vans. The supplier must familiarise itself with and observe all legislation and all other statutes, statutory instruments, regulations and abide by the Authorities operator licence requirements.
It is important that the Supplier fully understands that the statutory requirements are only the minimum requirements for the Authority vehicles to be deemed roadworthy. The Authority seeks to maintain its fleet to a standard over and above these requirements by ensuring that all vehicles are kept in good working condition and never at risk of falling below those minimum statutory requirements.
When instructed by the Authority’s Representative, the Supplier shall be able to provide the following Services:
a. Inspection and servicing.
b. MOT preparation.
c. MOT (‘annual test’).
d. Repairs.
e. Roadside assistance and recovery.
The contract commencement date will be 1st August 2024 to 31st July 2027. There is two optional extensions 1st August 2027 to 31st July 2030 and 1st August 2030 to 31st July 2033. Making a potential nine-year total contract term.
Due to the lack of certainty as to the demand for the Services under this Contract, the Council has estimated the amount that it will spend under this Contract during the Contract Period, (including any possible extension periods) at £1,500,000.This is only an estimate and the actual spend maybe higher or lower than this figure.
The Council is of the opinion that TUPE will not apply.

Published award criteria (2)
- Quality: 60
