Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Lancashire procured vehicle conversion services for six Volkswagen Amarok Standard Response Utility 4x4 vehicles. The requirement covers converting the vehicles for response use, rather than supplying standard vehicles or general fleet services. The work is associated with Lancashire Police and delivery is in the United Kingdom, with the buyer based at Lancashire Police, Saunders Lane, Hutton, Preston. The procurement is relevant to businesses that convert and recondition motor vehicles, particularly suppliers able to adapt Volkswagen Amarok 4x4 utility vehicles for operational or emergency-response purposes. The awarded service classification is vehicle conversion and reconditioning, including motor vehicle conversion services.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It was a selective, below-threshold award made under a framework, without a competitive call-off. One completed lot was awarded to WILKER U.K. LIMITED. The award recorded on 3 August 2026 has a value of £80,314.14 excluding VAT and £96,376.96 including VAT. The related contract was signed on 9 August 2026 and runs from 10 August 2026 to 31 January 2027. A further award record gives the same supplier and lot but does not state a separate value or award date. The process was non-competitive, so suppliers were selected through the framework route rather than evaluated through an open tender.

This award demonstrates a defined Lancashire Police requirement for specialist conversion of six Volkswagen Amarok Standard Response Utility 4x4 vehicles. A credible future competitor would need practical capability in motor vehicle conversion and reconditioning, with the workshop capacity, tooling and technical competence to adapt multiple utility vehicles consistently for response operations. Experience of vehicle fit-outs for police, emergency services or other operational fleets would help demonstrate understanding of reliability, safety, usability and standardisation requirements. The route to market is also commercially important: this was a below-threshold framework award made without a competitive call-off. Suppliers seeking similar work from this buyer would therefore need access to an appropriate framework and the ability to deliver through its terms. WILKER U.K. LIMITED, the awarded supplier, is recorded as an SME.
