Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Police Authority has concluded a procurement process for the purchase of vehicles, under the title "Vehicle Purchase," within the public order and safety industry category. Located in Glasgow, Scotland, the process was initiated using an open procurement method, typical of an open procedure. The procurement stage is at the award stage with the process being completed, and the contract was signed on 16th April 2026, valued at £251,274. The delivery location of the vehicles is within the UKM region, aligning with the needs of the Scottish Police Authority as a central purchasing body.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in the supply of standard and specialist vehicles, especially those with the capacity to engage in large-scale contracts. The contract was awarded to the Volvo Group, indicating a preference for suppliers who can deliver on both quality and efficiency. Companies that can supply vehicles with specific requirements in the public order and safety sector would be well-positioned to compete in this market. While only one bid was received electronically, this highlights a competitive edge for suppliers with the ability to navigate electronic procurement systems effectively.
