Summary of the contracting process

Severn Trent Water Limited, in collaboration with Hafren Dyfrdwy Cyfyngedig, is currently in the planning stage of a market engagement exercise for a procurement titled "Fuel Card & EV Charge Card Services Tender." This initiative targets the procurement of goods, specifically fuel cards for traditional fuels and EV charge cards for electric vehicle charging across public networks. The exercise is aimed at suppliers within the fuel and charge services sector, with the objective of understanding their capabilities and readiness to meet these needs. The main industry categories are petrol, gas oils, electricity, and charge cards, applicable to a fleet exceeding 3,000 vehicles. This process serves as part of the preliminary engagement and is due for engagement completion by 9th February 2026. The procurement is above the threshold with a contract period expected to start on 31st August 2026, potentially renewing until 2034, covering the central Midlands region and northern Wales. The location for delivery is within the United Kingdom.

This planning phase tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specializing in fuel and EV charge card services to expand their portfolio by partnering with established private utilities like Severn Trent Water and Hafren Dyfrdwy. Businesses well-suited to compete include those capable of handling large-scale fleet requirements and providing comprehensive fuel and charging solutions. This engagement provides an excellent avenue for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) due to its suitability criterion and the extended contract duration. Participating businesses will be instrumental in influencing the tender's scope and strategy, contributing innovative solutions to support an extensive fleet's operational efficiencies.
