The Greater Manchester Combined Authority has completed a procurement process titled "GMCA 1662 Volvo XC60 Servicing" under the industry category of goods, specifically focusing on emergency vehicles and vehicle parts. This procurement was to secure services for the Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service to maintain their fleet of Volvo FDS officer vehicles over a contractual period of three years. The contract, valued at £145,365.37, covers regular servicing over this time span and involves multiple regions within the United Kingdom.

This procurement exemplifies how public contracts can serve as an avenue for expansion, especially for businesses looking to establish or strengthen their stance in the UK public sector by providing specialised auto servicing solutions. The direct procurement approach highlights opportunities for businesses with unique or niche expertise that might not require competitive tendering processes.
