Summary of the contracting process

The Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner for Northamptonshire has concluded a procurement process for the purchase of Skoda fleet vehicles, intended for use by Northamptonshire Police. This procurement falls under the Motor Vehicles category, with the delivery set in the East Midlands, UK. Utilising the national Blue Light Commercial Agreement, this call-off contract from a framework agreement is worth up to £4,000,000 over a four-year period starting from 28th April 2025, with no obligation to spend the full contract value. The tender has moved beyond the award stage, effective from the same date, supplied by Skoda UK - Volkswagen Group Limited.

The opportunity is geared towards businesses specialising in the motor vehicle industry, particularly those with the capacity to supply high-performance and emergency service vehicles. Skoda UK, a large-scale vendor, has been awarded the contract, though the procurement method indicates a selective process, suggesting openness to competition within the framework in future tenders. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) suited to accommodate the criteria of the Blue Light Commercial framework agreements could find future growth prospects in similar procurement activities by aligning their offerings to meet the specific needs of emergency services vehicle supply.
