Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Police Authority bought vehicles under the framework for standard and specialist vehicles. The requirement was for vehicle purchase, classified under CPV 34100000, and covered one lot. Delivery was for Scotland. The buyer is a public body responsible for public order and safety, based in Glasgow, and acts as a central purchasing body. This is a goods requirement rather than a service or works contract. The wording indicates a fleet purchasing need that can include both ordinary operational vehicles and vehicles with specialist specifications for policing or related public-sector duties. Toyota (GB) PLC was the selected supplier for the requirement.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used an open procedure under the vehicle framework. Toyota (GB) PLC was awarded the single lot, and the contract is active. The award value is £21,251.91. The contract was signed on 1 August 2026. One bid was received, submitted electronically; it was not from an SME. Evaluation was therefore based on the requirements and criteria in the procurement documents, with the successful supplier selected through the open framework route. The record identifies the purchase as an award against the framework for standard and specialist vehicles, rather than a standalone vehicle supply exercise.

This award demonstrates demand from the Scottish Police Authority for supplied vehicles through an established framework route, including standard and specialist types. A credible future competitor would need to supply complete vehicles that meet public-sector operational and specialist specifications, support a formal procurement process, and deliver reliably across Scotland. The result also indicates that the requirement can be fulfilled electronically through a framework call-off and that competition may include large vehicle manufacturers or authorised distributors. Vehicle businesses with a broad catalogue, public-sector account management, dependable delivery arrangements and the ability to configure or source specialist vehicles would be better placed to compete when a similar requirement returns.
