Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Midlands Fire Service procured the lease of an Audi Q6 electric vehicle (315kW Quattro, 100kWh, S Line, five-door automatic) for supply to employees through a salary sacrifice scheme. The requirement is for a specific vehicle rather than a general fleet or vehicle service. The procurement description says the lease was supplied by Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust. The vehicle’s listed delivery location is in the West Midlands. The purchase is classified as a service, with the vehicle itself described as an electric vehicle. This requirement may be relevant to vehicle leasing providers able to supply the specified Audi model for an employer salary sacrifice scheme.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust. West Midlands Fire Service used a competitive quotation below the threshold, through a call-off from the ESPO Staff Benefit Framework. The award date was 24 September 2026, and the contract period runs from 24 to 26 September 2026. The awarded contract value is £36,738. The estimated procurement range was £36,737 to £36,738. The notice records one requirement and one awarded supplier; it does not set out additional lots or evaluation weightings. The tender deadline was 23 September 2026. This award reflects a specific vehicle lease purchase rather than a broader vehicle supply arrangement.

For suppliers tracking repeat requirements from West Midlands Fire Service, this award shows demand for a leased premium electric vehicle as an employee benefit through salary sacrifice, sourced by a competitive quotation under an established staff benefits framework. A credible competitor would need to arrange supply of the precise Audi Q6 specification, support a lease-based salary sacrifice offer, and be able to deliver the vehicle in the West Midlands. The successful supplier was a large organisation, and the procurement was marked as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises; this points to a requirement that may favour suppliers with the scale and established arrangements to fulfil the vehicle lease. The evidence is specific to this model and scheme, rather than general vehicle fleet procurement.
