Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Midlands Fire Service procured a Tesla Model Y Premium Long Range rear-wheel-drive automatic for leasing to employees through a salary sacrifice scheme. The requirement was for an electric vehicle, rather than a general fleet or vehicle supply contract. The vehicle was delivered in the West Midlands. The procurement description identifies Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust as the scheme supplier, while West Midlands Fire Service is the buyer. This is a specific employee-benefit vehicle requirement connected to the ESPO Staff Benefit Framework, so it is most relevant to suppliers able to provide leased electric cars through comparable staff benefit arrangements.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust. The award date was 24 September 2026, and the awarded value was £35,395.05. The contract period runs from 24 to 26 September 2026. It was a limited procurement conducted by competitive quotation below the applicable threshold, as a call-off from the ESPO Staff Benefit Framework. The quotation deadline was 23 September 2026. The data gives a minimum estimated value of £35,395 and a total estimated procurement value of £35,395.05. No lots are described. The published information does not set out separate scored evaluation criteria for the quotation, so the award basis beyond the competitive quotation route is not detailed.

The award demonstrates a defined requirement for a premium long-range electric vehicle supplied on lease as an employee salary-sacrifice benefit. A credible competitor when this specific requirement returns would need to source and provide the specified type of electric car and support delivery through an established staff-benefit framework or equivalent call-off route. The selected supplier was a large organisation, and West Midlands Fire Service marked the opportunity as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises; this points to a requirement better matched to a supplier with the scale and framework access to administer the arrangement. The commercial opportunity is narrow: suppliers focused on general vehicle sales, unrelated fleet services or broad employee benefits without leased electric-car provision are less aligned with this buyer’s demonstrated purchase.
