Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Midlands Fire Service procured a leased Mercedes-Benz GLB electric estate for employees through a salary-sacrifice scheme. The requirement is for an electric vehicle and the associated vehicle-leasing service, supplied through the ESPO Staff Benefit Framework. The vehicle’s delivery location is recorded as the West Midlands. Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust is identified as the supplier, while West Midlands Fire Service is the buying organisation. This is a staff-benefit vehicle arrangement rather than a general fleet purchase: suppliers active in leasing electric cars and administering salary-sacrifice schemes are the closest match to the requirement.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust. The award date was 2 September 2026, and the awarded value was £33,447.15. The recorded contract period runs from 2 to 3 September 2026. The requirement was called off from the ESPO Staff Benefit Framework using a competitive quotation below the applicable threshold. The stated tender submission deadline was 1 September 2026. The opportunity is recorded as a single vehicle requirement, with no separate lots described. The selection basis is recorded as competitive quotation; no detailed scoring or award weighting is stated in the process information.

This award shows that West Midlands Fire Service has bought an electric estate vehicle through a staff salary-sacrifice arrangement using the ESPO Staff Benefit Framework. Suppliers best placed to compete when this specific requirement returns are those able to provide or lease Mercedes-Benz electric vehicles, manage employee vehicle-benefit or salary-sacrifice schemes, and operate as suppliers under the relevant framework. The purchase was for one named vehicle rather than a broad fleet programme, so credibility rests on matching the specified vehicle and supporting the scheme’s leasing and employee-supply needs. The recorded outcome names an NHS foundation trust as supplier, indicating that framework access and the ability to fulfil the vehicle-leasing arrangement were sufficient for this procurement.
