## Summary

South Lanarkshire Council is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process for a Framework Agreement covering light and heavy vehicle repairs, including mechanical and electrical servicing, MOTs, and plant repairs. This initiative, valued at £2,000,000, is designed to service the Council’s fleet of approximately 1,700 vehicles at various locations within the UKM95 region. The initial planning notification for this tender was issued on 2 October 2025, with future updates expected on 1 December 2025. Interested bidders have the opportunity to engage with the Council during pre-tender sessions scheduled for 7 October 2025 and 13 November 2025, which aim to provide further insights into the contract requirements and expectations.

This framework provides a substantial opportunity for businesses involved in vehicle repair and maintenance services. Companies specialising in mechanical and electrical repairs, MOT servicing for both light and heavy vehicles, and plant servicing are particularly well-suited to compete for this tender. Engaging in this public procurement contract can facilitate business growth through a long-term partnership with a leading regional authority. The open framework approach, aligning with Regulation 34 of The Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015, ensures a transparent and competitive process, opening avenues for businesses already registered or planning to register on Public Contracts Scotland and PCS-T systems for future tender participation.
