Summary of the contracting process

Scottish Borders Council has recently completed a procurement process for the purchase of two used telehandlers under the title "Purchase of Two Telehandlers". Categorised under the industry for general public services and using the CPV code 42418900, the procurement aimed to enhance operational efficiencies in Salt Barns located in region UKM91. The procurement was carried out through a limited procedure, without prior publication of a call for competition, due to the specialised nature of the requirement that dictated sourcing specific used machines. The procurement stage culminated in an award on 14th May 2025, with the process reaching completion by 20th May 2025.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses, particularly those specialising in niche machinery or used equipment, to align with Scottish Borders Council's needs. Although this specific procurement was fulfilled by the SME, Scot JCB, the process underlines the potential for similar enterprises to engage in competitive bids for specialised supplies and services. The limited procurement method suggests opportunities for businesses that can offer exclusive or technically specific solutions, providing a growth avenue for companies with the capability to deliver such specialised goods.
