Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust pertains to the acquisition of fuel cards for NHS fleet vehicles, classified under the industry category of goods. Located in Worcester, United Kingdom, this procurement was conducted using a direct method, bypassing competitive tendering due to its below-threshold status. The contract, awarded to Fuel Card Service Ltd, became active as of 5 June 2025 and is set to conclude on 30 April 2026. This process is now in the award stage, as indicated by the active status of the related contract on 17 June 2025.

This opportunity supports business growth by opening doors for suppliers specialising in agency fuel cards to align with healthcare fleet requirements. While the procurement method selected did not foster competition on this occasion, similar tenders in the future could benefit businesses with established links in the public sector or those seeking to expand their portfolio within government contracts. Companies with expertise in managing large-scale corporate accounts, particularly those with efficient logistical solutions, would be well-suited for such opportunities.
