Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Police Authority purchased standard and specialist vehicles under a framework arrangement. The requirement covers the purchase of vehicles as goods, rather than vehicle maintenance, leasing or associated services. The procurement is associated with public order and safety activity and was managed by the Scottish Police Authority as a central purchasing body. Delivery is within Scotland. The requirement was organised as a single vehicle-purchase lot and uses the common procurement classification for motor vehicles (CPV 34100000). This opportunity is relevant to vehicle manufacturers, authorised vehicle distributors and suppliers able to provide standard and specialist vehicles for a public-sector policing organisation. It is focused on supplying vehicles to the Authority, rather than constructing facilities or providing general transport services.

The procurement has completed and the contract was awarded to Toyota (GB) PLC for the single lot. It used an open procedure under a framework arrangement. One bid was received, and it was submitted electronically. The contract value is £108,626. The contract was signed on 21 July 2026 and is recorded as active. The published outcome identifies Toyota (GB) PLC as the selected supplier. The procurement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. The available outcome data records the purchase as a completed vehicle procurement, with the award made through the open route and the contract now in force. The process therefore provides evidence of a concluded purchase rather than a current bidding opportunity.

This award shows that the Scottish Police Authority buys both standard and specialist vehicles through a framework-based public procurement route. Suppliers considering future work with this buyer would need to demonstrate the ability to provide complete vehicles suitable for public-sector policing requirements, including specialist variants where required. A credible competitor is likely to need manufacturer or authorised-distributor capability, dependable supply arrangements and the capacity to fulfil a public organisation’s vehicle requirements through electronic tendering. The single bid and award to a large established vehicle supplier indicate that scale, product range and confidence in supplying both ordinary and specialised vehicles may matter. Vehicle businesses that can support public-sector purchasing processes and offer an appropriate range of vehicles would be best placed to assess similar requirements from this buyer.
