Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Cheshire purchased Volkswagen vehicles for high-performance and advanced emergency service use. This is a vehicle supply requirement, rather than a general fleet or vehicle-maintenance contract. Delivery is associated with Winsford and the North West of England. The purchase was made as a call-off from a Crown Commercial Service framework, so the requirement was for vehicles available through that framework. The stated scope identifies Volkswagen vehicles but does not describe individual models, quantities or vehicle specifications. Suppliers considering similar Cheshire Police requirements should therefore note the specialist emergency-services purpose, rather than assume this covers ordinary passenger cars or wider fleet services.

The procurement is complete and Volkswagen UK was awarded the contract on 12 October 2026. The awarded value is £192,076.38. The contract period runs from 12 October 2026 to 31 January 2032. The requirement was procured selectively as a call-off from an existing framework, rather than through an open competition for this individual purchase. The tender deadline was 9 October 2026 at 12:00. No lots are identified, and the award information does not set out a separate evaluation formula or scoring breakdown. The recorded suitability assessment says the opportunity was not suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The purchase is categorised as motor vehicles (CPV 34100000).

For suppliers who did not win, this award is evidence that the Police and Crime Commissioner for Cheshire buys Volkswagen vehicles for high-performance and advanced emergency-service use through a framework call-off. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to supply vehicles suitable for specialist emergency-service roles and meet the relevant framework’s conditions, rather than compete solely on general-purpose fleet supply. The successful supplier was Volkswagen UK, indicating that the buyer selected a vehicle manufacturer or its supply route for this purchase. The assessment marked the requirement unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, pointing to a scale and route that may favour established suppliers with access to the framework and capacity to fulfil vehicle orders. The stated purchase scope does not establish specific models or technical fit-out requirements.
