Summary of the contracting process

Perth & Kinross Council procured vehicle uplift services across its region. The requirement was for a suitably qualified supplier to remove, recover or otherwise uplift vehicles on the council’s behalf. This is a vehicle recovery and transport service rather than a purchase of vehicles or equipment. The buying organisation is Perth & Kinross Council, based in Perth, and the service area is the Perth and Kinross region. The procurement is relevant to vehicle recovery operators, towing and transport businesses, and suppliers with the operational arrangements needed to respond to vehicle uplift requirements across a council-wide area. The classification associated with the requirement is CPV 79000000, a broad business-services classification.

The procurement has been awarded. Perth & Kinross Council selected Auto Services Perth Ltd as supplier, and the related contract is recorded as active. The awarded value is £36,000 in GBP; this is an estimate that includes the extension period. The award description identifies the value as a contract valuation rather than a fixed final spend. One bid was recorded for the procurement. The published title identifies the requirement as PKC14165 Vehicle Uplifts. The available outcome confirms a single supplier award for the council’s vehicle uplift service requirement. The award record does not provide an award date or contract start and end dates, so the outcome is best understood through the supplier, active contract status and estimated awarded value.

This award shows established demand from Perth & Kinross Council for a regional vehicle uplift service delivered by a suitably qualified specialist supplier. Businesses with vehicle recovery, towing, transport and associated operational capability would be the closest competitors when the requirement is next considered. A credible supplier would need to organise responsive vehicle uplift work across the council’s region, maintain the practical capacity to handle council requirements, and demonstrate that it is suitably qualified for the service. The single recorded bid and single awarded supplier indicate a focused requirement for a provider able to take responsibility for delivery across the area, rather than a broad multi-supplier marketplace opportunity.
