Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cambridgeshire County Council procured eight operational vans for highways street works. The fleet includes a mix of automatic and manual vehicles suited to daily use in urban and rural environments. The requirement covers fully maintained vehicle rental, including supply, servicing, maintenance, breakdown cover, replacement vehicles and fleet management support throughout the contract. The work is for the council’s operations across Cambridgeshire; Huntingdon is the council’s stated address. This is a vehicle rental and fleet support service, rather than a purchase of vans outright. The procurement was run through a framework for fleet rental.

The procurement is complete and a contract was awarded to Limesquare Vehicle Rental Limited. The award date was 19 September 2026 and its value is £141,549.60. The award records a contract period from 2 November 2026 to 1 November 2028, while the tender describes a two-year term with possible extensions of one year and then two further six-month periods, up to a maximum of four years. The tender submission deadline was 6 August 2026. The council used a restricted procedure. The data gives no separate evaluation criteria or scoring basis. The tender marked the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

For suppliers considering this requirement when it returns to market, the contract demonstrates demand for a small fleet of operational vans delivered as a fully maintained rental service. A credible competitor would need to source a mix of automatic and manual vehicles fit for regular highways street works in both urban and rural settings, and provide servicing, maintenance, breakdown response, replacement vehicles and ongoing fleet management as one joined-up offer. Capacity to keep all eight vehicles operational and support day-to-day council use would be central to the requirement. The selected provider was a small or medium-sized enterprise, and the tender was identified as suitable for SMEs, indicating that a capable smaller rental business could compete. The requirement is specifically for Cambridgeshire County Council’s highways operations, not a general fleet rental contract.
