Summary of the contracting process

The contract titled "Fuel Cards and Associated Services RM6186 - CCS Feb 2026" was concluded by Gentoo Group, a registered charity and housing association based in Sunderland, United Kingdom. The procurement process was classified in the "Charge cards" industry category, and it covers the UKC region. The process was completed under the limited procurement method without prior publication of a competition call, pursuant to a direct award compliant with a CCS framework. The contract process reached the award stage on 2 March 2026, with the contract signed on 20 February 2026. Gentoo Group serves as the buyer, while Allstar is the supplier for the contract valued at £1,242,354.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses involved in providing fuel card payment solutions, particularly those capable of delivering under a direct award framework agreement. Due to its nature, the contract could advantage large-scale companies already part of the CCS framework, such as Allstar. Smaller and emerging businesses may consider seeking inclusion in such frameworks to compete for similar tenders in future cycles.
