Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process managed by Cleveland Fire Authority involves the provision of managed solutions for vehicle spare parts, specifically for emergency vehicles. This procurement is classified under the goods category and is located in the UKC region, with the main activity targeting the management of vehicle spare parts for Cleveland Fire Brigades. The process, completed as of the award date of 17th July 2026, was carried out using a limited procurement method due to the procedure not requiring prior publication of a competition call. The contract, valued at £800,000, was signed with Fleet Factors, a large-scale supplier based in Middlesbrough, on 7th April 2026. The tender offered a two-year extension option, although the lot status was eventually marked as cancelled after the award.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in vehicle part management, particularly those focused on emergency and rescue vehicles. Given the award criteria prioritising price and the absence of a prior competition call, it could offer an edge to large suppliers capable of delivering comprehensive, one-stop solutions. Companies with the ability to manage an imprest or consignment-based stock system may find this procurement attractive for business growth. The managed solutions framework allows direct awards, which could be strategically advantageous for companies seeking to expand their relationships with regional authorities like the Cleveland Fire Authority. This opportunity could particularly suit businesses operating on a larger scale within the UKC region and those aligned with public service vehicle needs.
