This procurement falls under the industry category of 'All-terrain vehicles' with additional classifications including off-road, emergency, and rescue vehicles. The procurement method used was a direct single tender action, suitable for processes below the threshold. The contract, valued at GBP 27,936.50, was awarded to Walker Motors LTD and will run from 14th November 2024 until 31st December 2024. Delivery locations include the United Kingdom and several international regions, emphasising the vehicle’s extensive deployment capabilities. The award date was 14th November 2024, with official publication occurring on 22nd November 2024.

This procurement offers business growth opportunities particularly for suppliers and manufacturers specialising in robust engineering and support vehicles. Although large enterprises such as Walker Motors LTD have successfully competed, businesses with capabilities in producing or supplying specialised emergency and rescue vehicles can explore similar tenders. The opportunity for growth extends to firms that facilitate international shipments, given the diverse potential delivery locations, including regions like Europe and British Overseas Territories. The procurement nature suggests focusing on niches that support infrastructure and emergency response functions, aligning with public sector demands for reliable and versatile vehicles.
