Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Purchase of Tippers" was conducted by the Scottish Borders Council, based in Newtown St Boswells, focusing on acquiring three Ford Transit Leader Tippers. This procurement falls under the industry category of 'General public services' and the regional authority classification. The process followed a 'limited' procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition due to technical reasons, with a contract award completed on 14 April 2025. The award was directed to A M Phillip Trucktech, a small or medium-sized enterprise (SME) located in Paisley. The procurement is in the Award stage, having been finalised with a contract value of £105,900 GBP.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in vehicle supplies, especially for those with inventory ready for immediate delivery. SMEs that have pre-registered vehicles available, like A M Phillip Trucktech, are particularly well-suited to benefit from such procurement methods where specific goods are required without the necessity of a competitive bidding process. Businesses with similar capabilities and stock could stand to gain by aligning their offerings with public sector needs in future procurements. Additionally, the focus on local and regional suppliers can strengthen their market position within the public procurement landscape.
