Summary of the contracting process

East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust has awarded a contract for the provision of fuel card services and associated management services under the CCS Framework RM6367. This contract, titled "Fuel Cards," will support the Trust's operational fleet requirements, with services including the supply and administration of fuel cards, transaction processing, and access to discounted fuel pricing. Administered through a direct award procurement method, the contract is scheduled to start on 28 July 2026 and will initially span three years, with potential extensions of up to two additional years subject to performance. The procurement, classified under the goods category and relevant to the diesel fuel industry, will primarily serve the Blackburn region under direct compliance with UK North West coverage requirements.
