Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation (UKRI), a central government public authority, has completed the procurement process for a contract titled "UKRI-5319 Supply of Used Fire Engine - Scania Bronto (Loler Tested)." This contract was aimed at supplying a used fire engine with a lifting platform for the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) at RAL and Chilbolton Observatory. Located in Swindon, Wiltshire, UKRI used a direct procurement method, opting for a below threshold process without competition. The contract, valued at £50,995 excluding VAT, with a gross amount of £61,194, was active from 22 October 2025 to 10 November 2025, and was signed on 21 October 2025. The industry category is classified under goods, specifically fire engines, and the delivery location is within the UK, particularly marked as region UKJ14.

This procurement represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in emergency vehicle supply, particularly those capable of providing used vehicles meeting specific testing requirements like the LOLER standard. Companies such as Angloco Ltd, which was the successful supplier for this contract, are well-suited to compete in such tenders due to their experience and capabilities in the niche market of emergency services vehicles. SMEs active in manufacturing or refurbishing specialised vehicles and equipment for the public sector stand to benefit greatly from engaging in similar procurement opportunities, enabling growth through expanded service offerings and strengthened governmental partnerships.
