Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Lincolnshire procured the supply of bunkered diesel fuel for Lincolnshire Police. This is a goods contract focused on fuel supply, with delivery to the police site in Lincoln identified by postcode LN5 7PH. The requirement is for diesel rather than a broader vehicle-fuel or fleet-services package. The contract description includes an optional extension period, so the buying need may continue beyond the initial term if that option is exercised. The procurement was run as a further competition under the Government Commercial Agency’s RM6305 framework, which places the requirement within an established framework purchasing route.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Standard Fuel Oils Limited on 23 September 2026. The awarded value is £777,600. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2029, with an optional 12-month extension. This was a selective call-off from a framework agreement, following a further competition under framework RM6305. The tender response deadline was 15 July 2026. The recorded tender value matches the award value. The published information identifies the successful supplier and the award outcome, but does not set out the detailed evaluation criteria or any separate lot awards.

This award demonstrates a substantial, multi-year requirement for bunkered diesel to support Lincolnshire Police’s operations. A credible competitor when this requirement returns would need to supply diesel reliably to the specified Lincoln site and demonstrate the operational capacity to fulfil the buyer’s fuel requirement throughout the contract term. The competitive route was a further competition through the RM6305 framework, so framework access and the ability to respond to call-off competitions are relevant commercial capabilities. Suppliers focused on fuel supply and delivery are a closer fit than businesses offering general fleet services alone. The result also shows that the buyer selected a large fuel supplier, indicating that delivery capacity and dependable supply are commercially pertinent to this requirement.
