Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process by Lancaster City Council, located at Lancaster Town Hall, Dalton Square, Lancaster, United Kingdom, involved the purchase of a telehandler, classified under the goods category of forklift trucks. The process was conducted through a limited procurement method, specifically designed for below-threshold competition. The tendering stage has been completed, and the contract was signed on 24th September 2025, with an active contract period from 1st December 2025 to 1st June 2026. Scot JCB Limited, based in Glasgow, United Kingdom, was awarded the contract. This tender highlights a legal basis aligned with the UKPGA legislation (2023/54).

The procurement of a telehandler provides opportunities for businesses involved in the manufacturing or supply of industrial vehicles and equipment to engage with sub-central government organizations like Lancaster City Council. As this procurement was conducted through a limited competition method, businesses with experience in specialised or niche equipment supplies stand a good chance of benefiting from similar tenders. Established large-scale suppliers, such as Scot JCB Limited, with a robust supply chain and experience in handling government contracts, would find such opportunities well-suited for their capacity and service offering.
