Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council conducted a procurement process for the supply of Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) fuel, titled "HVO Fuel Tender December 2025." The contract, categorised under the CPV classification for petroleum products, fuel, electricity and other sources of energy, was completed with the award issued to Standard Fuel Oils Ltd on 22nd December 2025. The contract period spanned from 23rd December 2025 to 30th January 2026. This procurement was intended for the delivery of goods within the United Kingdom, specifically targeting the region of England. Leicestershire County Council, situated in Glenfield, Leicester, acted as the buyer, and their procurement method was classified as 'Other'. The suitability criteria indicate potential opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), but not for voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs).

This tender offers a significant business growth opportunity for firms specialising in fuel supply, particularly those dealing with environmentally friendly alternatives like HVO. SMEs with experience in supplying petroleum products and fuels can benefit from competing in procurements within the public sector, bolstered by their agility and targeted expertise. The partnership between Leicestershire County Council and Standard Fuel Oils Ltd is an example of leveraging SME capabilities for public sector needs. Companies with efficient logistics systems and competitive pricing strategies in energy or fuel provisioning are well-suited to engage in similar tenders, which offer a streamlined entry point into government contracting.
