Purpose

CONTRACT REF: KMCHS-391
Framework Period: 1st January 2024 to 31st December 2025 with an
option to extend for two further twelve-month periods until 31st
December 2027
 
The contract is in place to
supplement the delivery of highways projects. This Includes, but
not limited to, Excavator with drivers, Hiabs
and tippers with drivers and planning
and surfacing machines. The capital required to purchase these
items of plant, combined with the running costs and uncertainty of
work dictates the hire model as the most economical. The current
contract ends at the end of November 2023. A small extension will
have to be in place to bridge the gap between the current ending
and the new contract commencing.
