The process, which culminated in an award stage on 22nd October 2025, saw Lookers Group appointed as the supplier. The value of the contract is £442,210.36.

This tender provides growth opportunities for suppliers specialising in automotive vehicles, particularly those with expertise in providing commercial trucks and crew cabs. Although the tender did not specify suitability for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), businesses that have the capacity to fulfil large-scale vehicle contracts may find this opportunity beneficial. Companies engaged in manufacturing or distributing commercial vehicles, especially those located in or servicing the North East of England, would be well-positioned to compete in similar future procurements.
