The Framework, reference; NEPO224, is available to all existing and future TPPL members, and the wider public sector in the United Kingdom, with immediate effect.

The scope has been broadened from the preceding framework to include Skips, Roll On – Roll Off (RoRo) Containers, and Waste Supplies (eg. Collection Bins). 69 suppliers have been appointed providing organisations with better National coverage, from a more diverse range of suppliers.

The framework replaces its’ very popular predecessor which was used by more than 160 contracting authorities, to procure more than £350 million of goods and services.

Specifications can be sent to us via enquiries@tppl.co.uk quoting framework reference NEPO224, and a member of our team will be in touch to provide guidance on how to access the Framework.

Managing Director of TPPL, James Brennan commented, “We are excited to announce the launch of our third Heavy Goods and Specialist Vehicle Framework (NEPO224) in partnership with NEPO. The new solution has undergone iterative improvements that see the introduction of category specific HGV conversion lots, resulting in a greater number of suppliers and vehicle categories catered for. Lot 8 provides members with access to products for waste collection services, such as wheeled bins, containers and food waste caddies. We have developed a rate book accessible to evaluate supplier pricing across different volume requirements. Speak with a member of our team who are on hand to support members with going to market for supplies.”

The previous TPPL & NEPO HGV and Specialist Vehicles Purchase Framework remains accessible where advantageous for members until 30^th June 2025, following it’s recent extension.
