Summary of the contracting process

The Welsh Government, acting as the buyer, is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process to establish a new framework agreement called "Vehicle Telematics II". The procurement covers the provision of telematics units and associated products intended for use by the public sector across Wales. Set to operate from 29 July 2026 to 28 July 2030, this procurement falls under the goods category and employs an open procedure method. The upcoming "Meet the Buyer" event on 17 May 2026 will be hosted virtually via Microsoft Teams, offering suppliers the opportunity to engage individually with the contracting authority. Key procurement dates include the tender submission deadline on 15 June 2026 and the award decision by 17 July 2026. The industry classification aligns with telematics systems, with a gross contract value anticipated at £7,200,000.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in telematics systems, particularly those specialising in telematics units and software services. Companies capable of delivering both core telematics technology and additional software solutions are well-positioned to compete successfully. SMEs in the region will find this framework beneficial, given the suitability provisions favouring smaller enterprises. With the framework agreement facilitating access to nationwide public sector markets, participating companies can significantly expand their reach and foster collaborations with various governmental bodies throughout Wales, contributing to long-term business development and success.
