Summary of the contracting process

The Lancashire Fire and Rescue is conducting an active tender under the title "LFR02 - Closed Framework for Vehicle Maintenance and Servicing." This procurement process falls under the industry category of repair and maintenance services, combined with transport equipment, and is located within the United Kingdom. The tender currently focuses on three specific Lots: Emergency Service Heavy Fleet Repair, Light Vehicle Fleet Repair, and General Electrical Maintenance. The procurement is in the tender stage, with all submissions required by noon on 26th June 2026, via The Chest Portal. Enquiries must be submitted by 15th June 2026, and the awarding of contracts is anticipated by 30th June 2026. Employing an open procedure, the tender does not impose participation fees and has been structured as a closed framework. Each lot requires a separate submission, and only the two top-ranking suppliers will be selected per lot.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in vehicle maintenance and electrical services. With a total framework value of £3.6 million, it presents a viable avenue for growth, especially for SMEs with capabilities in servicing heavy and light vehicle fleets, alongside electrical maintenance tasks. The focus on repair and maintenance within the vehicle industry could ideally suit enterprises that already engage in transport equipment services or those looking to expand into fleet management. Successful bidders will not only secure positions on a prestigious framework but will also have potential contract extensions, offering stability and continued business growth over a term extending potentially up to 2031.
