Summary of the contracting process

The Council of the City of Wakefield conducted a public procurement process for the acquisition of a replacement vehicle, specifically a Ford Kuga, under the industry category of motor vehicles. This process, identified as CAP26-092, was carried out via a direct procurement method deemed below threshold and without competition. The contract was awarded to FORD RETAIL LIMITED on 27th July 2026, with the award date being 28th July 2026. The procurement location was Wakefield, UK, in the region UKE4, and the contract covers a period from 1st September 2026 to 31st August 2029. This procurement stage is currently complete, with an active contract in place worth £21,349 GBP.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the motor vehicles industry, particularly those capable of offering competitive pricing and high-quality vehicle supply. Although this specific contract was awarded without competition, similar procurement opportunities by public authorities could offer substantial growth prospects for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and other suppliers with strategic positioning and a strong supply chain. Companies specialising in vehicle supplies and services in the UK, particularly in the Wakefield area, would be well-suited to explore similar opportunities to expand their market presence and establish a relationship within the public sector.
