Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Lancaster City Council involved the acquisition of two 7.5 Tonne Cage Tipper vehicles with dump over tail lift, categorized under the motor vehicles industry (CPV: 34100000). This tender, with ID DN788457, was conducted using a selective procurement method, specifically through a restricted procedure. The process has reached the award stage as of 10th December 2025, and the contract valued at £202,290 was signed on the same date. The vehicles are to be delivered to a location in the UK, and the procurement aimed to balance quality, social value, and price as award criteria. The sole active award was given to DAF Trucks Limited, indicating this piece of procurement as complete, even though one of the lots was cancelled during the process.

This procurement opportunity is particularly attractive to businesses specialising in providing motor vehicles, especially those with the capacity to deliver specialised trucks like the 7.5 Tonne Cage Tipper. Companies such as small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with a focus on quality and competitive pricing are ideally positioned to pursue such contracts in the future. Lancaster City Council, being a regional authority, frequently undertakes such tenders, presenting continuous opportunities for businesses engaged in public-sector-focused logistics and vehicle supply services. As quality and social value constituted a significant portion of the award criteria, businesses that can demonstrate excellence in these areas stand to benefit the most from participating in similar procurement processes.
