Summary of the contracting process

Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust procured the lease of two electric vans for regional supplies. The requirement sits within fleet management, repair and maintenance services, covering the provision and management of vehicles rather than a one-off vehicle purchase. Delivery and operational use are associated with the Trust’s Queen Alexandra Hospital site in Cosham, Portsmouth. This is a transport and fleet-services requirement for an NHS organisation, relevant to vehicle leasing companies, fleet operators and suppliers able to support electric commercial vehicles for regional logistics. The contract concerns two vans and links vehicle provision with the Trust’s supplies operation. Businesses serving healthcare, public-sector or regional distribution fleets may find the requirement particularly relevant, especially where they can combine leasing arrangements with ongoing fleet support.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust used a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, relying on a procurement framework. The requirement was evaluated on price, and one bid was recorded. SG FLEET SOLUTIONS UK LIMITED was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 1 September 2026 for £107,432.88. The procurement was structured as one lot for leasing two electric vans; that lot is recorded as cancelled, while the award and contract are active. The available outcome data identifies the signed contract and supplier but gives no contract end date or stated duration. The award therefore records a completed purchasing decision rather than an unawarded requirement.

This award demonstrates established NHS demand for leased electric vans supporting regional supplies in Portsmouth. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to provide and manage small electric commercial fleets, understand leasing structures and maintain reliable vehicle availability for operational logistics. Fleet management, repair and maintenance capability is relevant because the procurement was classified around those services, not simply vehicle supply. Suppliers should be able to support public-sector fleet users with dependable servicing, repairs and practical arrangements for vehicles used in regional distribution. The selected supplier was recorded as an SME, showing that the requirement was delivered by a smaller business rather than only a large national fleet provider. Experience with framework-based public procurement and a clear price proposition would also strengthen a competing offer.
