Summary of the contracting process

Forestry and Land Scotland purchased eight Isuzu pickup trucks for use by its wildlife rangers. The requirement was for light commercial vehicles, as part of the buyer’s fleet. Delivery was in Scotland. This is a vehicle supply opportunity focused on providing practical pickups for ranger work.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to A F Noble & Son (Penicuik) Ltd. The contract value is £420,956. It was signed on 30 September 2026. The purchase was made as a direct-award call-off from the RM6244 vehicle framework. The tender data also describes the procedure as open. The procurement was arranged as one lot. Bid statistics record one bid, from an SME. No award date or contract period is provided in the published data.

The award shows demand from Forestry and Land Scotland for light commercial vehicles, specifically eight Isuzu pickups for wildlife rangers. A supplier seeking to compete for a similar requirement would need to provide suitable pickup vehicles and be able to fulfil a fleet order for operational use in Scotland. The selected supplier was an SME, and the purchase was made through the RM6244 framework for standard and specialist vehicles. This provides a useful indication of the buyer’s purchasing route and the type and scale of vehicle supply involved. The requirement is vehicle supply rather than vehicle maintenance or other ranger services.
