The Crown Estate has initiated a public procurement process titled "Vehicle Leasing Services," aimed at acquiring forty-two vehicles for operations at Windsor Great Park, UK. This procurement, categorised under fleet management services, involves an open competitive flexible procedure starting with a Pre-Selection Questionnaire stage, followed by supplier down-selection and an Invitation to Tender with a presentation stage. The procurement process is currently in the tender phase, with a submission deadline set for 1st September 2026. The contract, valued at up to £870,000, will commence on 16th October 2026 and could extend until 15th October 2031 if all renewal options are exercised.
