Summary of the contracting process

North East Lincolnshire Borough Council is procuring ten new fully electric small vans for its fleet. This is a goods purchase covering the supply and delivery of electric vehicles, with delivery in North East Lincolnshire. The requirement is intended for vehicle suppliers, manufacturers, authorised dealers and fleet specialists able to provide multiple new electric vans rather than individual vehicle sales. The specification includes essential vehicle requirements, battery performance, warranty provision, delivery arrangements and aftersales support. The council is based in Grimsby. The contract also includes a range of desirable vehicle options that the authority may choose to take up during the contract, with those options detailed in the tender documents.

The procurement has reached tender: the council invited offers through an open procedure, with tenders submitted electronically through the YORtender procurement portal. Questions had to be submitted by 19 August 2026 at 16:00, and tenders were due by 24 August 2026 at 12:00. The award decision was scheduled for 30 September 2026. The contract is scheduled to run from 30 October 2026 to 29 October 2029. Its estimated value is £333,333 excluding VAT, or £400,000 including VAT. There is one lot. Evaluation is based on cost at 60%, with quality covering essential compliance on a pass/fail basis, delivery 10%, battery WLTP mileage range 10%, warranty terms 5%, warranty conditions 5% and aftersales 10%.

This opportunity suits SMEs and established vehicle suppliers with the capacity to source, configure and deliver ten new electric small vans and support them throughout a three-year contract. Strong battery performance, dependable delivery, comprehensive vehicle and battery warranty arrangements, and effective aftersales service are commercially important because they are directly evaluated. Suppliers must provide confirmation of up-to-date economic and financial standing information and hold, from contract commencement, employer’s liability insurance of £10 million, public liability insurance of £5 million and product liability insurance of £5 million. Relevant commercial organisations must also confirm that they have published a compliant Modern Slavery Act section 54 statement. Suppliers should be able to offer the desirable vehicle options listed in the tender documents.
