## Summary

Mid Suffolk District Council has successfully completed a procurement process to purchase a used refuse collection vehicle, with the tender officially awarded on 20 July 2026. The contract, identified by OCDS ID 068307-2026, involves a direct award due to the unique capability of the supplier, Endurance Vehicle Solutions Limited, to meet the specific requirements and timelines. This procurement falls under the 'goods' category, specifically for refuse-collection vehicles, with delivery scheduled for the region of UKH14 in the United Kingdom. The contract period is set to begin on 1 August 2026 and conclude on 31 March 2027. The procurement stage has reached the completion phase with contractual agreements following the rules of UKPGA 2023/54.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in the production or supply of specialised vehicles, particularly those with capabilities to supply within short time frames. Suppliers in the automotive or vehicle supply industry who can deliver specialised refuse vehicles could find potential growth in similar future procurements. Companies with experience in direct awards or niche product markets are well-suited to such opportunities, presenting them with avenues to expand their market reach by aligning with local government needs that require specialised logistical solutions.
