Summary of the contracting process

In a completed public procurement by the Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service, the organisation sought to acquire seven Flexi Duty Officer (FDO) cars for operational use, as part of their ongoing replacement program. This procurement was done via a direct award against the Crown Commercial Services (CCS) RM6422 Framework, under Lot 1 for the purchase of passenger cars. The contract award was made to Volvo Car UK Limited and the procurement was processed through a selective method by calling off from the framework agreement. The contract value amounted to £213,838.45, and it covered a delivery to the South West region of the United Kingdom, with the contract period extending from 2nd June to 1st December 2025. The process reached the award stage with the contract actively awarded on 30th May 2025 and announced on 13th June 2025.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those involved in the supply of standard and specialist vehicles, to engage in procurement processes with public sector clients like the Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service. SMEs might find these opportunities particularly enticing due to the suitability preferences outlined in the procurement process, despite the call-off being from a large framework. Additionally, businesses that can align with the requirements of direct awards through established frameworks may find pathways for growth and further opportunities in supplying to public organisations within similar categories. The procurement involves logistics and operations in the UK, thus favouring suppliers with a strong regional presence or capability to deliver within specified timelines and contractual terms.
