Summary of the contracting process

Lincolnshire Partnership Foundation NHS Trust procured vehicle-fleet management services and the provision of vehicles. The requirement covers management of the Trust’s vehicle fleet alongside supplying vehicles for its operational needs. It is a services contract, classified under CPV 50111100 for vehicle-fleet management services. Delivery is associated with the Trust’s base at Beech House, Lincoln, Lincolnshire, postcode LN5 7JH, within the East Midlands. The buyer is Lincolnshire Partnership Foundation NHS Trust, an NHS foundation trust serving Lincolnshire. The requirement would suit a provider able to combine ongoing fleet administration and management with access to, sourcing of, or provision of suitable vehicles for the Trust’s operations.

This procurement has been awarded following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender closed on 31 July 2026 at 12:00. The contract was awarded on 21 August 2026 to Knowles Associates Total Fleet Managment Limited for £25,000. The estimated procurement value was between £16,500 and £25,000, in each case in GBP. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2029. The tender is recorded as complete and the award as active. The award covers the fleet management service and vehicle provision requirement for Lincolnshire Partnership Foundation NHS Trust. The selected supplier is based in Great Bentley, Colchester, Essex.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement from an NHS foundation trust for a combined fleet management and vehicle-provision service delivered through a framework call-off. A credible future competitor would need to manage a public-sector vehicle fleet reliably over a multi-year period, while also providing or sourcing vehicles that meet the buyer’s operational requirements. Relevant capability includes fleet administration, vehicle procurement or leasing relationships, maintenance and compliance coordination, supplier management, cost control and responsive customer service. Experience of working with NHS or other public-sector organisations would help demonstrate understanding of governance, auditability and service continuity. The requirement was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that future competitors should be prepared to evidence established capacity and framework-based delivery.
