Summary of the contracting process

Coventry City Council purchased one electric van for its Street Pride service. This is a vehicle supply requirement, classified as motor vehicles (CPV 34100000). Delivery is in the West Midlands. The purchase was made through the council’s vehicle buying arrangement.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Lookers Motor Group Ltd on 6 October 2026. The council used a direct award through the TPPL vehicle purchase framework. The contract value is £29,135.83. The contract period runs from 7 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. The original tender deadline was 6 October 2026. The procurement covered one vehicle and was not divided into lots.

For suppliers considering similar future requirements from Coventry City Council, this award demonstrates demand for a single electric vehicle for the Street Pride service, purchased through a vehicle framework. A credible competitor would need to supply an electric van suitable for the service’s needs and be able to fulfil public-sector vehicle purchases through an eligible framework route. The council’s stated suitability assessment did not identify the opportunity as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises.
