Summary of the contracting process

Norfolk County Council purchased a tactical response vehicle for emergency-service use. The requirement was for an Ineios Grenadier Quartermaster fitted with a Wildfire misting unit, combining a specialist response vehicle with equipment for wildfire suppression or control. This is a goods procurement rather than a service or construction project. The vehicle was supplied to Norfolk County Council, whose headquarters are in Norwich. The requirement is relevant to manufacturers, vehicle dealers, specialist emergency-response equipment providers and businesses able to supply integrated vehicle-and-equipment solutions. Suppliers with experience in public-sector emergency fleets, tactical response vehicles or wildfire mitigation equipment would be closest to the requirement.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to ANGLOCO LIMITED, an SME based in Batley. Norfolk County Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 9 June 2026 and runs from 6 July 2026 to 1 August 2026. Its gross value is £91,500. The award covers one completed lot and one tactical response vehicle. The contract is active, and the supplier has been selected. This outcome indicates a targeted purchase rather than a competitive multi-supplier framework or a larger programme. The procurement was evaluated through the direct-award route, with no competitive tendering stage.

For suppliers that did not win, this purchase demonstrates a defined requirement for a complete tactical response vehicle rather than a generic fleet vehicle. A credible competitor for a future equivalent requirement would need to source or manufacture an emergency-services vehicle, integrate a Wildfire misting unit, and demonstrate that the combined solution is suitable for operational response use. Relevant strengths would include vehicle engineering, specialist fire or wildfire suppression equipment, systems integration, testing, servicing and support for public-sector emergency fleets. The selected supplier’s SME status also shows that delivery at this scale can be undertaken by a focused specialist rather than only a large national contractor. Norfolk County Council is therefore a relevant buyer for businesses with this specific combination of vehicle and wildfire-response capability.
