In plain English
Kirklees Council wants to set up a framework agreement, a pre-approved list of suppliers, to supply and deliver highways materials and tools for its in-house road maintenance and town centre improvement work. The framework runs from 18 December 2026 to 17 December 2028, with the option to extend by two further 12-month periods, and is split into three lots: civil engineering materials, site safety equipment, and hand tools and consumables.
What the buyer wants
• Provide a price list for the materials or tools in the lot(s) you bid for, with supply and delivery costs included, as these costs are what will be evaluated. • Supply goods that meet the stated performance properties, and British Standards where these apply. • Deliver orders on time to the depot or site locations stated, and provide a collection price if the council ever needs it.
Lots
- Miscellaneous Civil Engineering Materials
- Site Safety Materials
- Tools and consumables
Requirements
What could rule a small business out (our reading of the notice, written with AI): The notice does not set out any explicit eligibility thresholds, but because positions on the framework are decided on delivered price alone, a small business would need to offer competitive delivered prices across the range of goods in its chosen lot, meet the specified British Standards, and reliably deliver to the council's sites.
Always check the tender documents.
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.
