Summary of the contracting process

The Cabinet Office has completed a procurement process for the supply of vehicles to the Government Car Services ministerial fleet. This procurement falls under the industry category of passenger cars, classified with a CPV code of 34110000. The procurement method used was selective, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender reached completion with an award date of 13th January 2026, followed by the contract commencing on 14th January 2026 and concluding on 31st March 2026. The contract, valued at £185,833.50, spans locations in the United Kingdom.

This tender presents growth opportunities for businesses specialising in the automotive industry, particularly those with a strong supply chain in passenger cars. While the procurement is finalised, companies with similar capabilities may benefit from understanding this selective procurement method as it indicates the potential for future opportunities via framework agreements. Large-scale automotive firms, akin to the awarded supplier, Mercedes-Benz Cars UK Limited, are well-suited for such contracts, given the specialisation required to meet government specifications and fleet needs.
