## Summary

The procurement process led by Durham County Council involved the award of a contract for the provision of welfare vehicles, specifically 10 Nissan Interstar Welfare Vans, under the title "GB-Durham: TPPL Durham County Council HCC Lot 2". Classified under the industry category of "Welfare vehicles" (CPV: 34114300), this procurement falls within the 'goods' category. The process reached the 'Award' stage, with the contract being awarded to Lookers Group, a large entity, on 29th May 2025, following a tender period that concluded on 29th May 2025. Located in the region of North East, United Kingdom, the contract was valued at £433,260 and is set to span from 30th May to 30th June 2025. While specific procurement methods were not detailed, the tender initiation type was explicitly 'tender'.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses involved in the production, supply, and management of welfare vehicles. Companies specialising in automotive manufacturing or supply chain management, particularly those that have experience with vehicle conversions or fleet services, would find this contract beneficial. While this procurement was targeted by Durham County Council, known for managing diverse procurement needs, future tenders by similar councils or organisations might offer further avenues for those looking to expand their footprint in the public sector vehicle supply market. Although this particular contract was not marked as suitable for SMEs or VCSEs, larger firms like Lookers Group have demonstrated competitiveness and capability in successfully securing such contracts.
