Summary of the contracting process

Forestry and Land Scotland bought a fleet of 22 fully electric vehicles: four Kia cars and 18 Kia vans. This is a vehicle supply requirement, intended for the organisation’s fleet. The supplier was Lloyd Motor Kia. The vehicles are associated with delivery in Scotland. The requirement was placed as a call-off from the Crown Commercial Service’s RM6244 framework for standard and specialist vehicles, covering the purchase of vehicles. For businesses, the key scope is supplying a mixed fleet of electric cars and vans to a Scottish public-sector forestry and land-management organisation. The published item classification is for motor vehicles (CPV 34100000).

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Lloyd Motor Kia. It covered one call-off from the RM6244 framework, using a direct-award call-off route; the procurement method is also recorded as open procedure. The contract value is £573,579, and the contract was signed on 28 September 2026. The requirement was for four electric Kia cars and 18 electric Kia vans. The release reports one bid for the lot. No award date or contract-period dates are available in the process information, so neither can be stated. No separate evaluation basis or weighted criteria are reported. The contract is recorded as active.

This award demonstrates demand from Forestry and Land Scotland for a sizeable mixed fleet of electric cars and vans, rather than a single vehicle or a small one-off purchase. A credible competitor for a future return of this requirement would need to supply both vehicle types and meet the specified electric-vehicle requirement, with the capacity to fulfil an order across a fleet. The successful supplier was a Kia motor retailer, so established vehicle supply capability is relevant to this purchase. The procurement used a call-off from the RM6244 framework for standard and specialist vehicles; suppliers seeking comparable work should therefore understand the framework route and how direct-award call-offs operate. The award provides evidence of this buyer’s fleet purchasing needs, not a prediction of another procurement.
