Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Police Authority bought vehicles, described as standard and specialist vehicles, for public order and safety operations. The requirement is classified under CPV 34100000, covering motor vehicles. It is a goods procurement managed by the Scottish Police Authority, which also acts as a central purchasing body. The procurement relates to one vehicle-purchase lot, with delivery associated with the UKM area of Scotland. The named buyer is based in Glasgow. The requirement is relevant to vehicle manufacturers, authorised vehicle dealers, fleet suppliers and businesses able to provide vehicles suited to operational policing needs. The purchase covers vehicles rather than vehicle maintenance, staffing, consultancy or other support services. Toyota (GB) PLC was selected as the supplier for the requirement.

This procurement has been completed and awarded following an open procedure. Toyota (GB) PLC was selected for the single vehicle-purchase lot. One bid was received, submitted electronically, and the available bid statistics record no SME bid. The contract is active and was signed on 21 July 2026. Its value is £110,877.65. The award was made against a framework for the purchase of standard and specialist vehicles, under Scottish reference 839477. The process was evaluated through the open procedure, with the requirement focused on supplying the specified vehicles. The award record identifies Toyota (GB) PLC as the supplier; the published outcome does not break the value down into separate vehicle types or identify separate awards.

For suppliers reviewing this buyer’s future vehicle requirements, the procurement demonstrates demand for both standard and specialist vehicles to support Scottish policing and public safety operations. Credible competitors would need to supply complete vehicles meeting operational specifications, rather than offering general transport consultancy or unrelated fleet services. The requirement is suitable for established vehicle manufacturers, franchised dealers, fleet providers and specialist vehicle suppliers with access to suitable models and the capacity to manage public-sector supply. The single bid and award to a large vehicle company indicate that scale, dependable manufacturer or distributor support, and the ability to fulfil a defined vehicle order are commercially relevant. Suppliers should be able to evidence suitable vehicle capability, reliable delivery arrangements and experience serving demanding public-sector or operational fleets.
