Summary of the contracting process

Scottish Borders Council, a regional local authority based in Newtown St Boswells, has completed the procurement process for the purchase of a chassis truck. This procurement falls under the general public services industry category and is located in the UKM91 region. The tender, identified as WR-144, involved acquiring a DAF chassis with a bolt-on engine-driven PTO, essential for compatibility with an existing gritter body. Classified under CPV code 34139000, the tender was awarded without a prior call for competition, employing a limited procurement method. The contract, valued at £63,000, was signed on 10th April 2025, marking the completion stage of the procurement process. The supplier for this contract is Motus Commercials Ltd, a large-scale company based in Glasgow.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses specializing in vehicle manufacturing and customisation, particularly those adept at meeting specific technical requirements such as chassis compatibility. Although the procurement method was limited due to technical reasons, it underscores the need for suppliers with unique capabilities in the provision of specialized vehicle components. Companies of similar scale to Motus Commercials Ltd, which can offer specialized products or services integral to public services infrastructure, would be well-suited to pursue similar opportunities with organisations like the Scottish Borders Council. This could potentially lead to more collaborative initiatives and long-term partnerships in the public sector vehicle supply chain.
