Summary of the contracting process

The Welsh Government (Llywodraeth Cymru) has completed the procurement process for the "Fuel Cards for Fisheries Vehicles" contract, which aims to supply fuel cards under the CCS Fuel Cards and Associated Services Framework Agreement (RM6186). This tender, focusing on general public services, required fuel cards to be accepted at a minimum of 65% of fuel stations across Wales and the UK, accommodating vehicles that utilise unleaded, diesel, and electricity. The procurement method was limited to a mini-competition under an existing framework, bypassing the necessity for a prior call for competition. The procurement stage is at completion as of 3rd October 2025, with the contract signed on 1st October 2025 in Cardiff, UK. The awarded supplier, ALLSTAR Business Solutions Limited, is a prominent, large-scale supplier.

This tender offers growth potential for businesses specialising in fuel distribution and associated vehicle services, particularly those equipped to provide comprehensive account management and robust customer support systems. Companies that handle sizeable logistics operations or have a significant UK presence would likely have a competitive edge in such bids. The structured award criteria, which account for both quality of service and pricing, support the opportunity for businesses that excel in these areas to distinguish themselves within the framework agreements managed by Crown Commercial Services.
