Summary of the contracting process

North Lanarkshire Council purchased five new 4x4 double-cab pickup vehicles for use in North Lanarkshire. This is a goods procurement for standard or specialist vehicles, classified under CPV 34100000 for motor vehicles. The requirement covered the supply of the vehicles rather than a separate maintenance, leasing or operational service. The council is based at its Civic Centre in Motherwell. The procurement was made against the GCA framework agreement for the purchase of standard and specialist vehicles, RM6244, indicating that the requirement was intended to be fulfilled through an established public-sector vehicle purchasing route. The selected supplier, Western Maxus, is based in Bellshill and is recorded as a large organisation.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following an open procedure. One bid was received for the single lot, and the award went to Western Maxus. The contract was signed on 21 July 2026 and is active. Its value is £165,935 including the published currency of GBP. The award relates to the supply of all five new 4x4 double-cab pickups. The procurement used the GCA framework agreement for standard and specialist vehicles, RM6244, rather than a standalone unrestricted vehicle purchase. The published outcome records one electronic bid, with no bids from SMEs and one bid from outside the EU. No separate contract delivery period or award date is recorded in the procurement outcome.

This outcome demonstrates demand from North Lanarkshire Council for a small fleet of new 4x4 double-cab pickups sourced through a public-sector vehicle framework. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement would need to provide new four-wheel-drive utility vehicles in fleet quantities and operate effectively through the relevant framework route. Credibility would come from a dependable vehicle supply capability, the ability to meet a council’s specification for double-cab pickups, and capacity to deliver several vehicles as one purchase. Vehicle manufacturers, authorised dealers and fleet suppliers with access to suitable standard or specialist models are the most directly relevant competitors. The result also shows that the buyer accepted a single electronic bid from a large supplier for this requirement.
