Summary of the contracting process

Lancashire County Council is planning a procurement process for supplying vehicle parts to its Fleet service. The tender, titled "Vehicle Parts," is classified under the industry category of transport equipment, inviting businesses to engage in an open procurement method. The project is located in the United Kingdom, specifically in the UKD4 region. The planning stage is currently underway with the tender process set to commence, and the council aims to publish future notices by 1st August 2025. Interested parties should prepare for the contract period starting on 1st November 2025 and continuing through to 31st October 2029.

This procurement offers considerable opportunities for businesses specialising in the supply of transport equipment and auxiliary products. Particularly, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to compete, given the contract’s suitability framework. With a planned contract value of £2,000,000 excluding VAT, companies with expertise in providing diverse vehicle parts could significantly benefit from engaging with this sub-central government authority, fostering long-term business growth through sustained supply contracts. The open procedure ensures broad competition and transparency, ideal for enterprises looking to establish or expand their market presence within the public sector.
