Description

NY Highways (NYH) requires a Framework Agreement for the supply of non‑operated plant, tools, welfare units, telehandlers, and for the servicing, maintenance and repair of NYH‑owned equipment. The framework will support highways maintenance activities across seven operational areas in North Yorkshire. It will run for two years with options for two further one‑year extensions. The framework covers five lots. Lot 1 includes the hire of non‑operated plant such as excavators, dumpers, rollers and associated attachments, supplied with all required certification, compliant with health and safety legislation, and delivered in a safe, fully functional condition. Lot 2 covers the hire of small tools and equipment including breakers, compaction equipment, generators, lighting, fencing, horticultural equipment, traffic management equipment and specialist detection devices, with all necessary accessories, servicing and calibration included. Lot 3 provides mobile welfare units and portable toilets with weekly servicing covering emptying, cleaning and replenishment of all consumables. Lot 4 covers the hire of 7‑metre telehandlers including forks and buckets, meeting LOLER requirements and maintained to support essential winter highway operations. Lot 5 covers servicing, repair, maintenance and calibration of NYH‑owned plant and equipment across multiple depots, including the supply of all parts, materials and documentation required to keep equipment in a safe, legally compliant and operational condition. Suppliers must provide both planned hire and rapid emergency response services, with stringent delivery and breakdown response times. All equipment must be modern, safe, compliant with relevant regulations, and supplied with appropriate certification and records. Delivery may be required to depots or to specific site locations, and equipment is not considered off‑hire until formally released by NYH. Replacement equipment must be provided when hired or NYH‑owned items are out of service. The Supplier must maintain accurate contract data, comply with key performance indicators relating to availability, condition, repairs, collections and invoicing, and support NYH sustainability objectives including reductions in emissions, waste and environmental impact. This procurement will ensure continuous access to reliable, fit‑for‑purpose equipment and responsive support services essential for the delivery of highways maintenance activities across North Yorkshire.
