Summary of the contracting process

Runnymede Borough Council procured tyre supply, fitting, repair and associated maintenance for its vehicle fleet. The requirement covers heavy-duty and light-duty vehicle tyres, tyre repairs, fitting and balancing, and maintenance work such as turning a tyre on the rim. Delivery and service coverage extends across England, including the council’s wider operational area and locations throughout the English regions. This is a fleet support and vehicle maintenance requirement rather than a construction or standalone goods purchase. Businesses relevant to this requirement include commercial tyre suppliers, tyre fitting and repair operators, and providers able to manage recurring tyre needs for a public-sector vehicle fleet across a broad geographic area.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, with one completed lot. VACULUG LIMITED was selected as the supplier. The contract was signed on 10 August 2026 and runs from 10 August 2026 to 30 June 2029. Its value is £95,000 excluding VAT and £114,000 including VAT. The requirement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender. The award covers the council’s fleet tyre supply, fitting, repair and associated maintenance services across England. The contract is active, and the selected supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise.

This procurement shows sustained public-sector demand for managed tyre services supporting a borough council fleet. A credible future supplier would need to provide heavy-duty and light-duty vehicle tyres, fit and balance them, carry out tyre repairs, and undertake associated maintenance such as turning tyres on the rim. The requirement also points to the importance of serving fleet operations rather than isolated retail customers, with delivery and service capability extending across England. Businesses competing for a similar requirement would therefore benefit from established commercial tyre supply, responsive repair and fitting operations, and the capacity to manage a geographically broad public-sector fleet account. VACULUG LIMITED’s selection provides evidence that an SME can satisfy this type of council requirement.
