Summary of the contracting process

Northumberland County Council bought one Iveco Eurocargo RoRo chassis, rated at 250 hp with a 1,800 kg capacity. This is a heavy vehicle purchase, rather than agricultural machinery in the ordinary sense, despite the classification attached to the procurement. The council’s description identifies the vehicle and chassis but does not explain its intended operational use. Delivery is in the Northumberland area, with the council based in Morpeth. The purchase was made through the NEPO 224 framework agreement. The requirement is for a single vehicle, so it is a discrete supply opportunity rather than a multi-vehicle fleet order or a vehicle servicing contract.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to North East Truck & Van Limited. The council used a limited procedure without a prior call for competition, making the award through the NEPO 224 framework agreement as a below-threshold contract. Price was the stated award criterion, and one bid was recorded. The contract value is £101,100. It was signed on 23 September 2026; no contract-period dates are stated. The procurement was arranged as one lot, which is recorded as cancelled, while the award and contract are recorded as active. The published outcome therefore identifies the selected supplier and signed contract, alongside a cancelled lot status.

For suppliers considering similar future requirements from Northumberland County Council, this award shows demand for a single Iveco Eurocargo RoRo chassis, rather than a broad vehicle fleet or ongoing maintenance service. A credible competitor would need to supply a vehicle matching the specified 250 hp and 1,800 kg capacity, and be able to transact through the NEPO 224 framework route. Price was the stated basis for selection, so competitive pricing against a clearly matched vehicle would matter. The successful supplier is a small or medium-sized business, showing that a supplier of that scale fulfilled this particular requirement. The award gives vehicle dealers and commercial vehicle suppliers a concrete indication of the council’s purchasing pattern; the stated data does not establish additional requirements for servicing, adaptation or other vehicle capabilities.
