The Norfolk County Council has completed the procurement process for the purchase of four new Area Tech Vans for the Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service, with the contracting authority located in Norwich, England. The process, classified under the industry category of Vans (CPV code 34136000), utilised a selective procurement method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The award stage concluded with a contract awarded to Ford Motor Company Limited on 14 January 2025, following a desktop exercise via the CCS Fleet Portal to identify suitable vans. The delivery location for the vans is specified as NR9 3DN, and the contract period extends from 14 January 2025 to 30 November 2025. The total contract value is GBP 186,331.44.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the supply of automotive goods, particularly those experienced with providing vehicles for emergency services.
