Delivery of wide-track tractor (1)
Waterschap Hunze en Aa's has launched an open tender for the delivery of a wide-track tractor (breedspoortractor). The tractor will be deployed for water management and maintenance tasks in flood defenses, marshlands, and other wet environments. The tender requires a vehicle with low ground pressure, high traction, water-resistant construction, and power suitable for pulling heavy water management systems. Additionally, the tractor must comply with Dutch environmental legislation (e.g., CO₂ emissions, noise), safety standards, and CE marking. Suppliers must submit full technical specifications, a delivery plan, a warranty and maintenance arrangement, and proof of certification. The procedure is open, meaning all interested parties are free to participate. The contract is relatively small, offering a good opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to secure a market position.
