Ipswich Borough Council requires a long wheelbase, high top, panel van that is equipped to undertake industrial cleaning tasks and graffiti removal. The requirement is for a fully equipped van with racking, Steam Cleaner built-in, storage built-in, handwash unit, roof rack and ladder storage to replace an existing van and trailer combination.
The decision made was to purchase this vehicle and associated equipment from Ford at a total cost of £58,331.22 after discount.
Reason:
Replace existing end of life panel van and trailer combination. The Crown Commercial Services Framework Agreement – RM6060 has been used to identify suitable vehicles. This framework allows a comparison of vehicle specifications, pricing and selection of the vehicle most appropriate. This framework then allows for further bespoke specification of the vehicle and associated equipment.
