Summary of the contracting process

Dacorum Borough Council has completed a procurement process for the supply of three replacement vans for their current fleet. The procurement involved direct sourcing, below the threshold, and without competition. The contract was awarded to Slip End Garage, a small to medium-sized enterprise, and covers the supply of specific Citroen van models, including the Citroen Relay, Citroen e-Berlingo and Citroen Berlingo XL Enterprise. Located in Hemel Hempstead, the council intended for these vehicles to be used at a local depot. The contract started on 24th November 2025 and is expected to conclude by 31st March 2026. The process falls under the goods category with a contract value of £91,645.08 inclusive of gross amounts.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small to medium enterprises, especially those in the automotive supply and vehicle maintenance sectors. Businesses with the capability to offer fleet solutions, vehicle supplies, or associated logistic services can find similar opportunities advantageous for growth. The contract not only provides an infusion of business through direct supply but enhances relationships with public sector buyers, potentially facilitating future procurement engagements. Businesses with a capacity for efficient delivery and familiarity with regulatory requirements for vehicle supply will be particularly well-suited to pursue tenders of this nature.
