Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner for Northamptonshire has completed the procurement process for the purchase of Volkswagen fleet vehicles, under the award stage as of 2nd September 2025. This contract, valued up to £2,000,000 excluding VAT, is set within the motor vehicles industry category and involves a framework agreement under the national Blue Light Commercial Agreement for low and intermediate vehicles, as well as high-performance emergency service vehicles. The procurement method adopted was selective, with delivery set for the East Midlands, UK. The contract period spans from 28th April 2025 to 27th April 2029, without a commitment to utilise the full contract value.

This tender offers substantial growth opportunities for businesses dealing with motor vehicle supply and service, particularly those capable of handling large-scale contracts over extended periods. While Volkswagen Group Limited has been awarded the contract, businesses that are part of or can supply to framework agreements like the national Blue Light Commercial Agreement could position themselves favourably for similar tenders. The procurement is particularly suitable for SMEs, although the advancing nature of the contract may favour larger-scale suppliers, ensuring a diverse involvement from both types of entities in future opportunities.
