Summary of the contracting process

Lancashire Constabulary purchased motor vehicles for delivery in the North West of England. The requirement covers vehicle supply rather than vehicle maintenance, construction or other services, using the CCS RM6244 Vehicle Purchase framework. The buyer is Lancashire Constabulary, based in Preston. The procurement is categorised as goods and concerns general motor vehicles under CPV 34100000. The awarded suppliers are Stellantis & You and Volkswagen Group, both established vehicle businesses. This is relevant to manufacturers, authorised vehicle retailers, fleet suppliers and businesses able to provide vehicles through the relevant framework arrangement for policing or other public-sector fleet requirements in the North West.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded following a selective call-off from the CCS RM6244 Vehicle Purchase framework. The award was made on 30 June 2026 to Stellantis & You and Volkswagen Group, jointly covering an awarded value of £160,132.46. The contract runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2027. The tender submission deadline was 23 June 2026 at 12:00. Evaluation was conducted through the framework call-off route; the published data does not set out separate quality or price weightings. The original estimated procurement value was also £160,132.46. The opportunity was identified as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

For suppliers that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates demand from Lancashire Constabulary for a defined motor-vehicle purchase delivered through an established vehicle framework. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need access to the CCS RM6244 Vehicle Purchase framework, the ability to supply and deliver suitable vehicles in the North West, and the operational capacity to support a public-sector fleet order of this scale. The selected suppliers were large vehicle businesses, indicating that framework eligibility, manufacturer or authorised retail relationships, dependable fleet supply and delivery capability are likely to matter. Businesses should also be able to work within framework call-off procedures and meet the documentation, pricing and delivery requirements set for police vehicle procurement.
