Summary of the contracting process

The Council of the City of Wakefield procured 68 children’s micro scooters and 68 helmets for schools. The equipment supports the Walk Wheel Cycle Trust programme, scooter training and scooter parking projects, funded through the CATF Active Travel Fund. This is a goods requirement for a supplier able to provide children’s scooters and matching helmets for use in school-based active-travel initiatives. The buying organisation is Wakefield Council, and delivery is associated with schools participating in the programme. The requirement covers one product package rather than separate service or works elements, with the emphasis on supplying suitable quantities of scooters and protective equipment for educational and active-travel purposes.

This below-threshold procurement has completed and was awarded on 1 June 2026. It used a single lot, and the selected supplier was MICRO SCOOTERS LIMITED. The awarded gross value was £6,300. The contract period runs from 21 July 2026 to 31 October 2026, with signature scheduled for 21 July 2026. The procurement method was recorded as below threshold, with the specific method described as unknown. The award covers the supply of motor scooters and cycles with auxiliary motors for the school programme. The contract is valued and timed for a defined equipment-supply project rather than an ongoing service. No award cancellation or contract termination is recorded.

This award shows demand from Wakefield Council for child-sized micro scooters and helmets to support school active-travel programmes, practical scooter training and scooter parking projects. Suppliers well placed for similar requirements would have a dependable supply of children’s scooters, compatible protective helmets and the operational capacity to fulfil a complete equipment package in the required quantities. Relevant experience would include supplying schools, councils or community active-travel initiatives, understanding delivery to educational settings, and providing products suitable for supervised training and everyday school use. A credible competitor would also need to manage short, defined project delivery and offer a coherent equipment specification rather than supplying scooters or helmets in isolation.
