Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process was initiated by The Mayor and Commonalty and Citizens of the City of London, aiming to hire one van and three minibuses. This falls under the services category with specific interest in "Hire of vans with driver." Located in the City of London, this process follows a direct procurement method below the threshold, without competition, indicating a sole supplier situation due to the uniqueness of the required goods. The award stage of this process was completed, with the contract being activated on 23 January 2025. The contract period spans from 24 January 2025 to 14 January 2028, with a total value of GBP 69,600.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specializing in vehicle rentals or leasing, particularly those with expertise in providing drivers alongside vehicles. Although the contract is already awarded to Enterprise Flex E Rent, understanding such procurement opportunities can help similar businesses prepare for future tenders, identify market gaps, and diversify their offerings to fit niche markets. Such opportunities can stimulate business growth by engaging with public sector contracts, fostering long-term business relationships, and enhancing service offerings to meet specific procurement needs.
