Summary of the contracting process

The recent public procurement process conducted by The Police and Crime Commissioner for North Wales involved the awarding of a contract for Managed Vehicle Recovery services. The tender falls under the public service category of automobile emergency road services, and covers the North Wales (UKL) region. The procurement method utilised was a direct award following a previously issued contract notice, which was later withdrawn for review purposes. The procurement process is complete, and the contract was signed with FMG Support LTD on 16th May 2026, with services starting on 9th September 2026, lasting initially for one year, with the possibility of a 12-month renewal. The total contract value amounts to £751,800 GBP, reflecting the critical nature of the service that requires continuous, 24/7 operation year-round.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for large-scale service providers specialising in vehicle recovery services, as it necessitates robust capacity for continuous operation and rapid response times. Businesses that comply with Welsh devolved regulations and can maintain rigorous service standards without disruption are well-suited to such opportunities. With a considerable financial scope, the contract offers potential suppliers a chance to strengthen their presence in the public sector market, particularly within emergency services support. Companies with expertise in managing large fleet logistics and maintaining stringent service level agreements can leverage this tender to enhance their portfolio and explore further engagements in similar public service contracts.

Notice Description

North Wales Police requires a 24-hour single call out service for vehicle recovery on each and every day of the year.

Procurement Information

NWP issued a Contracts Notice notice on 31/01/2026 for a Managed Vehicle Recovery Service. During this this time we received over 200 Clarification Questions so a decision was made to withdraw the tender to review the ITT documentation as we believed the process was unlikely to deliver a satisfactory evaluation and award outcome. A transparency notice was issued on 09/04/2026 and we received no objections A Contacts Award notice was issued on 16/04/2026 The ITT documentation is undergoing review and will be reissued this year. The original contact was issued under Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (PCR 2015) following an open tender process. Given the critical nature of the service, maintaining continuity of provision is essential. As the review and reissue of the tender would have required additional time, we took the decision to extend the existing arrangement to ensure there was no disruption to service delivery and to mitigate any potential impact on members of the public.
