## Summary

Scotland Excel is leading a procurement process for the "Supply and Delivery of Heavy & Municipal Vehicles", targeting local authorities and related bodies across Scotland. The procurement method is open and covers various vehicle categories, such as refuse collection vehicles, road sweepers, and chassis. Currently, the process is active, with an overall budget of £100 million. Stakeholders interested in bidding should note that contracts under this framework will be awarded to successful suppliers for different lots, each with specific requirements outlined in their respective tender documents.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in manufacturing or supplying heavy-duty and municipal vehicles. Firms specialising in chassis, refuse vehicles, and innovative designs for alternative-fuel vehicles will find competitive advantages here, particularly as local councils increasingly focus on sustainability. SMEs as well as larger firms capable of fulfilling the varied requirements for quality, price, and community benefits are encouraged to participate, especially considering the ongoing shift toward electric and environmentally friendly vehicle options in public services.
