UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

East and North Hertfordshire Teaching NHS Trust procured transport fuel cards for its vehicle fleet and related transport-fuel purchasing needs. The requirement is categorised as fuels and is a goods procurement. The buying organisation is East and North Hertfordshire Teaching NHS Trust, based at Lister Hospital in Stevenage. The work supports the Trust’s operational vehicle users, allowing authorised drivers or teams to obtain fuel through a card-based arrangement rather than purchasing fuel through individual transactions. This is a focused requirement for suppliers providing transport fuel-card products and the associated account, payment and fuel-purchasing service. The procurement covered one requirement rather than separate service or geographical packages, and the selected supplier was responsible for the complete transport fuel-card provision.

The procurement is complete and was awarded directly to ALLSTAR BUSINESS SOLUTIONS LIMITED. It used a below-threshold procedure without competition, with the award approved through a waiver under the Trust’s standing financial instructions. The award date was 22 June 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 September 2026. The awarded contract value is £15,722.25 excluding VAT, or £18,866.70 including VAT. One lot was completed and awarded as a single requirement. The award is active and the contract is active. The published evaluation route was direct award rather than a competitive assessment, so no scored price or quality criteria are stated for this procurement.

This award demonstrates a defined NHS Trust requirement for transport fuel cards, with a scale suited to a focused fleet-fuelling arrangement rather than a major infrastructure or fuel-supply contract. A credible future competitor would need to provide reliable fuel-card issuing and account administration, support authorised vehicle users, process and reconcile fuel transactions, and offer practical controls for a public-sector customer. Experience serving organisations with operational fleets and the ability to manage business fuel purchasing at Trust level would strengthen a supplier’s position. Suppliers should also be able to explain how they maintain service continuity, control card use, handle billing and reporting, and support audit requirements. The selected supplier’s large-business scale indicates that operational capacity and established delivery systems may matter for this buyer.
