UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Fleet Tracking Software" contract was conducted by Lancaster City Council, which is classified as a sub-central government public authority in the UK. The project, located in Lancaster, involves the provision of 128 vehicle tracking devices and falls under the industry category of telematics systems. The procurement method used was direct, allowing for a quick decision-making process, and the tender process has progressed to the award stage. Key timelines include the award date on 16 June 2026, with the contract period spanning from 17 June 2026 to 31 July 2029. This contract, valued at £44,015, is concluded under the legal framework of the UK Public General Acts of 2023.

This tender opportunity holds significant potential for businesses specialising in telematics and vehicle tracking technology. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), like Vision Techniques (UK) Limited, who won the contract, are particularly well-suited to compete in such direct procurement methods, which favour niche expertise and competitive pricing. Companies offering innovative solutions in fleet management and telematics systems could find similar opportunities advantageous for expanding their market presence and enhancing their portfolio within the public sector.
