Summary of the contracting process

The Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust has awarded a contract for the provision of fuel cards and associated services under the BlueLight Commercial (BLC) Framework, using the RM6186 Crown Commercial Services Fuel Card Framework. This contract will operate from 21 March 2026 through to 22 March 2028 and focuses on goods procurement in the diesel fuel industry category. The procurement utilised a limited method, bypassing prior publication of a call for competition due to its emergency service nature. The contract covers operations Trustwide, extending to the Nottinghamshire region (UKF), and has been classified under CPV as "Diesel fuel". Allstar Business Solutions Limited is the active supplier for this contract, which was signed on 1 March 2026 with a value of £250,000 GBP. The process followed an award stage in the procurement lifecycle, ensuring the provision aligns with pre-existing competitive frameworks managed by the BlueLight Commercial Team.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in fuel management and associated services, particularly for those with expertise in serving emergency services. Companies with existing relationships or a strong capability in managing fuel card systems will find competing in this tender advantageous. Despite the competitive constraints of the procurement method, businesses can leverage participation in extended frameworks like those provided by Crown Commercial Services, which emphasises collaboration and efficiency in public sector procurement. The geographic focus on Nottinghamshire might further interest regional stakeholders that can deliver robust fuel card solutions to the NHS Foundation Trust, catering to specific operational needs such as fuel-related logistics or emergency service requirements.
