Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Lincolnshire bought vehicles for use by Lincolnshire Police. This is a vehicle supply requirement for emergency-service use, delivered in Lincoln. The procurement was described as a purchase of vehicles, with no further detail about vehicle types, quantities or operational specifications. The requirement was procured through a framework call-off, rather than as a standalone specification, and relates to the buyer’s fleet needs. Suppliers working in vehicle manufacture or supply, particularly those able to serve public-sector fleet requirements through the relevant framework, are the closest commercial fit.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Volkswagen Group UK Limited. The award date was 25 September 2026, and the contract period is recorded as 25 September 2026 only. The awarded value is £232,538.40. The buyer used a direct award under the BLC fleet framework, with the procedure described as a framework call-off. The competition deadline was 31 August 2026. The data records the overall estimated procurement value at the same amount as the award. No lot split or evaluation criteria are stated, so the award outcome cannot be related to specific vehicle categories or scored criteria.

For suppliers that did not win, this award is evidence of Lincolnshire Police’s demand for vehicles supplied through a fleet framework. A credible competitor when this requirement next returns would need to offer vehicles suited to emergency-service use and be positioned to fulfil a public-sector fleet order through the buyer’s chosen framework route. The selected supplier was a large vehicle company, indicating that the awarded requirement was served by a supplier with established vehicle-supply capacity. The published scope does not identify particular models, quantities, specialist conversions, service support or technical standards, so it does not establish a more specific capability or accreditation threshold. Businesses in vehicle supply should assess whether their range and framework access match this buyer’s fleet requirement. Etison
