Summary of the contracting process

Livv Maintenance, a part of Livv Housing Group, successfully completed the procurement process titled "Fleet Contract Hire," in the transport industry category. The procurement aimed to secure approximately 110-120 vehicles on a contract hire basis to replace the existing fleet used by its in-house maintenance team. This procurement, conducted under the open procedure, involved an initial contract period of five years, with an optional one-year extension. The primary location for this procurement is the UKD region, with the contract set to commence in April 2025 and an anticipated vehicle delivery by Summer 2025. The contract has been awarded to LeasePlan UK LTD t/a Ayvens, as of 18th July 2025, with a total value of GBP 1,650,000. The procurement process included a standstill period as per the legal requirements, allowing for appeals from aggrieved parties.

This procurement presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the transport equipment and auxiliary products sector, particularly those offering vehicle and fleet management services. The contract requires the provision of a large volume of vehicles, potentially opening the door for additional orders throughout the contract term. Companies with capabilities in vehicle supply, along with associated maintenance services, would be well-suited to compete for similar tenders in the future. As this contract involves a considerable number of vehicles and a long-term commitment, it can contribute to robust business growth within the vehicle hire industry in the North West of England.
