HGV Supply

Thames Water intends to award Framework Agreement(s) for the supply Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) that are used across both our waste and clean water operations. The scope will include rigids, artics, clean water tankers, waste tankers, tippers, trailers, curtainsiders, dropsides, beavertails, etc, and will cover any current vehicle specs we have in our HGV fleet, along with any alternative specs we might want over the life of the agreement, including electric and alternative-fuel options. The framework will be split into lots to cover the different vehicle types, as well as purchase and lease options. Each Lot will be awarded to multiple suppliers, with mini competitions then run for each order between all the successful suppliers on the framework agreement for the different vehicle requirements. Our key priority is to minimise VOR and operational downtime to limit any impact to our customers.
