Summary of the contracting process

The Police & Crime Commissioner for Sussex bought windscreen repair and replacement services for its vehicle fleet. The requirement covers repairing and replacing vehicle glass, including the provision, fitting and repair of glass and associated products and services. It was delivered for the buyer’s operations in South East England. The procurement was for services under the CCS RM6353 Tyres, Glass and Telematics Framework, which covers provision to blue-light organisations. This is a vehicle-glass and fleet-support requirement rather than a general vehicle maintenance contract. Businesses specialising in windscreen replacement, vehicle-glass repair, mobile or fleet glass services, and associated supply and fitting work are the relevant market. The buyer is a regional public authority based in Lewes, serving Sussex.

The procurement has reached completion and was awarded through a limited procedure: a call-off from the single-supplier RM6353 Framework, without prior publication of a competition notice. Price was the stated award criterion, and one bid was recorded. Allscreens Nationwide was awarded the requirement, with an active award linked to the single lot. The contract was signed on 25 August 2026 for £222,500. The tender record marks the single lot as cancelled, while the award and contract are recorded as active. The arrangement includes three consecutive options to extend for one year each. The process was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. The buyer’s stated legal rationale was that the call-off fell outside the relevant directive’s scope.

This procurement shows established demand from Sussex policing for outsourced vehicle-glass repair and replacement, delivered through a public-sector framework rather than an openly competed standalone tender. A credible future competitor would need the capability to supply, fit, repair and replace windscreens and associated vehicle glass, with operational capacity suitable for blue-light vehicles and activity across South East England. Experience of public-sector or emergency-service requirements would help demonstrate understanding of service reliability and fleet support, although no specific accreditation is identified. Suppliers would also need to compete strongly on price, since price was the recorded evaluation basis. Access to the relevant framework route, or an equivalent route used by the buyer, would be important when this requirement is next considered.
