The brief

Greater Manchester Police have an obligation to ensure the free passageway of the highways and the physical removal of those vehicles where there is a likelihood of danger or obstruction to other road users.

Legislation empowers the Police to remove or arrange for the removal of vehicles which are abandoned, damaged, causing obstruction or danger as well as those that are suspected stolen.

Invariably, Recovery Operators are called upon to assist the Police in the recovery, storage and final disposal of these vehicles.

Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) is tendering to appoint operators to deliver light and heavy vehicle recovery services within the Greater Manchester area.

The contract period will be 2 years with an option to extend for a further 3 years on a 1 + 1 + 1 option.

To be considered for award of a contract Recovery Operators must have in place the relevant operator licences, accreditations and Health and Safety policies.

The contract will also be broken down into various Lots to cover a variety of geographical areas in Greater Manchester.

Where there are multiple operators awarded to any of the lots, jobs will be allocated evenly on a pro-rota basis starting with the highest scoring bidders.
