The procurement process led by Scottish Borders Council involves the acquisition of a Box Van with Tail Lift, classified under the CPV code 34136000, which falls into the industry category of goods. Located in the region of Newtown St Boswells, UKM91, the Council has finalised this contract in April 2025, with the award being announced on the 22nd of April 2025. The procurement stage is at Award, following a limited procurement method whereby an award procedure was adopted without prior publication of a call for competition due to the immediate availability of the vehicle.
