Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Wiltshire Fire And Rescue Service procured two replacement hydrant inspection vans for operational use. The requirement is for light commercial vehicles, classified under CPV 34136000, with a vehicle weight within the framework’s light-commercial-vehicle range of up to 5 tonnes. Delivery is to the South West of England. The purchase is intended to replace the service’s existing hydrant inspection vans, so the relevant supply chain includes vehicle manufacturers, commercial vehicle dealers and specialist fleet suppliers able to provide suitable vans for fire and rescue inspection work. The buyer is based at the Five Rivers Health and Wellbeing Centre in Salisbury. This is a goods procurement focused on supplying complete vehicles rather than a wider works or services contract.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 30 June 2026 to Lookers Limited trading as Corporate Addison Motors Ltd. The award value is £66,333.32 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 3 July 2026 to 2 January 2027. The buyer used a selective procedure through a direct call-off from the Hertfordshire County Council and The Procurement Partnership Limited vehicle purchase framework, under Lot 2 for light commercial vehicles up to 5 tonnes. The tender submission deadline was 26 June 2026 at 12:00 BST. The procurement was assessed as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The recorded tender status is complete and the award status is active.

For suppliers that did not win this award, the procurement demonstrates a defined requirement for replacement hydrant inspection vans within a fire and rescue setting. A credible competitor would need to supply two suitable light commercial vehicles, meet the practical requirements of hydrant inspection operations and work within the vehicle size and weight limits of the relevant framework lot. Vehicle dealers, manufacturers and fleet specialists with access to appropriate commercial models would be well placed, particularly those able to operate through public-sector framework call-offs. The opportunity also indicates that the buyer purchases replacement vehicles as a distinct fleet requirement, so suppliers should be able to present compliant vehicle specifications, manage delivery to the South West and understand framework purchasing procedures.
