## Summary

The procurement process initiated by Durham County Council, located in North East, United Kingdom, involved a tender for the acquisition of four vans, categorised under the industry classification 'Vans' (CPV code: 34136000). The contract value was approximately £72,078.80. This process reached the award stage with the contract being officially published on 20th March 2026, subsequent to the active award dated 13th March 2026. The contract period spanned from 14th March 2026 to 14th April 2026. The tendering process followed a method not explicitly specified and was classified under the 'goods' procurement category.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses involved in vehicle manufacturing, distribution, or sales, particularly those capable of supplying vans. Although the tender was awarded to Lookers Group, a large supplier based out of Harrogate, it indicates the potential for similar public procurement initiatives by Durham County Council. Businesses aligned with the automotive industry could leverage these opportunities for growth, especially those interested in establishing or expanding their footprint in the public sector. Since the procurement was not specifically tailored for SMEs or VCSEs, larger suppliers may find this sector more accessible.
