Summary of the contracting process

York College seeks one supplier to run a fully managed electric vehicle salary sacrifice scheme for eligible employees. The service covers sourcing electric cars, supporting employees, administering payroll, providing risk protection, reporting and managing the scheme and contracts. It is intended to help the College meet its net zero and sustainability aims, improve employee benefits and support recruitment and retention, while giving staff access to vehicles through a tax-efficient arrangement. The supplier will also need to help minimise the College’s administrative burden and financial risk and ensure compliance with HMRC requirements and employment law. The College is in York, and the stated delivery scope includes the United Kingdom and other locations, including Europe and the rest of the world.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure, seeking a single provider. The tender deadline set by the buyer was 27 November 2026 at 17:00 UTC. The intended contract period runs from 4 January 2027 to 3 January 2031. The estimated contract value is £4 million. The procurement is for services and is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The stated objectives describe a fully managed scheme, but no separate evaluation criteria or weighting are set out in the procurement details provided.

This opportunity suits providers able to deliver an end-to-end electric vehicle salary sacrifice service for a college workforce. Relevant capabilities include sourcing suitable electric cars, employee guidance and support, integration with or administration of payroll, risk protection, management reporting and ongoing contract oversight. Suppliers will need to operate a reliable service that reduces administrative effort and financial exposure for the College, while meeting HMRC rules and employment legislation. Experience with employee vehicle benefit schemes, fleet or vehicle management, leasing and payroll processes would be commercially relevant to delivering the requirement. The College is seeking a single supplier to take responsibility across the service, so bidders should be equipped to coordinate these functions rather than provide only vehicles or a single supporting service. The procurement is marked as suitable for SMEs.
