In plain English

Pembrokeshire County Council is looking for a fuel supplier to deliver petrol, diesel, or heating oil in bulk to council sites across Pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire. This is a framework agreement, meaning the council will call off orders from the successful supplier over a set period rather than place one large order upfront.

What the buyer wants

• Reliable supply and delivery of bulk fuel (petrol, diesel, or heating oil) to multiple council sites across two counties • Ability to handle regular scheduled deliveries and potentially emergency fuel requests • Meet all safety and environmental standards for fuel transport and storage

Lots

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

Most small one-person or two-person businesses will not qualify because this contract requires specialist fuel transport vehicles, ADR/dangerous goods certification, industrial-scale delivery logistics, and the financial capacity to service multiple council sites. This is a contract for established fuel distribution companies, not small independent traders.

How to bid

This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
