Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council is procuring workshop tools and equipment maintenance, repairs and installation services to support the servicing, maintenance and inspection of its vehicle fleets. The scope covers supply and delivery of new garage and workshop equipment, installation, commissioning, maintenance, testing, certification and lifecycle management. It also includes ongoing management and servicing of equipment already owned by the council. The equipment may be used for cars, light goods vehicles, heavy goods vehicles, plant and specialist fleet. Services will be required at workshop locations across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight. This is a services procurement for vehicle and fleet equipment repair and maintenance, including fleet management support. The appointed supplier will provide both equipment purchases and ongoing management services through the framework.

The procurement has reached tender: the council invited offers through an open procedure. It is a single-lot, above-threshold procurement for a closed single-supplier framework, with call-offs made directly by purchase order without reopening competition. Enquiries must be submitted by 10 September 2026 at 17:00:59, and tenders by 23 September 2026 at 14:00:59. The intended award decision date is 23 October 2026. The contract period is 2 November 2026 to 1 November 2030. The estimated value is £1,120,000 excluding VAT (£1,344,000 including VAT). Evaluation is based entirely on price, with the lowest-priced offer receiving the award. Electronic tender submission is allowed in English. A win fee applies for establishment of the single-supplier framework. The arrangement may need to adapt to Hampshire’s local government reorganisation, including possible changes to scope, volume or contracting entity.

This opportunity suits a supplier able to deliver end-to-end workshop equipment support, combining supply, installation, commissioning, inspection, testing, certification, planned maintenance, repairs and lifecycle management across varied vehicle and plant workshops. Relevant experience should cover equipment used for cars, light goods vehicles, heavy goods vehicles, plant and specialist fleets, together with the operational capacity to respond across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight. Bidders must meet the council’s requirements for corporate social responsibility, equalities and sustainability, and comply with data protection requirements, including registration with the Information Commissioner’s Office. Suppliers must hold, or commit to obtain before award, the required public and employers’ liability insurance. They need at least 12 months’ trading history, a minimum Creditsafe business risk score of 30, and SSIP or ISO 45001 accreditation with effective health and safety risk controls.
