Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process is overseen by the Department for Transport (DfTc), located in London, England, which has conducted a selective tender for leasing vehicles to support its Air Accident Investigations Branch. The contract, valued at £144,928.32, falls under the services category specifically geared towards fleet management, repair, and maintenance services. The procurement was executed using a call-off from a framework agreement, with the contract awarded to Sinclair Finance and Leasing Company on 23rd June 2026. The award has been formalized in the tender stage, and the contract period is set to commence on 1st July 2026, lasting until 31st January 2030. The scope of delivery includes not only the United Kingdom but extends to the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and the Rest of the World.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in vehicle leasing and fleet management services, particularly those tailored to supporting governmental operations. Companies with the capability to provide large-scale vehicle-fleet-support services will find this contract especially beneficial. Moreover, the framework agreement's selective procurement method suggests readiness for companies that have pre-qualified, allowing for faster engagement and greater assurance of contract fulfilment. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs), as well as voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), can benefit from exploring similar opportunities within the framework to enhance their portfolio and expertise in the public sector procurement space.
