Summary of the contracting process

Fife Council bought four passenger vehicles for its social work service. The requirement was for the purchase and supply of vehicles, with the detailed vehicle specifications described in the procurement documentation. The work is for the council’s social work service in Fife. This is a vehicle supply opportunity for motor dealers and vehicle suppliers able to provide cars to a local authority for operational use. The procurement was called “Purchase and supply of 4 vehicles for social work service”; it does not identify further vehicle types or technical requirements in the available description.

The procurement has been awarded. Fife Council selected SKODA UK, through a call-off from the Government Commercial Agency’s framework for standard and specialist vehicles. The award date, contract period and contract value are not stated in the published process data. The call-off award is recorded as active. One bid was recorded. The opportunity covered four vehicles as a single requirement, with no separate lots described. The award entry gives a value of £110,600.04. The process data does not describe the evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility requirements, so the basis on which the single bid was assessed cannot be summarised.

This award shows that Fife Council purchases passenger vehicles for its social work service through a framework call-off covering standard and specialist vehicles. Suppliers aiming to compete for a similar requirement would need to offer vehicles suited to social work operations and be capable of supplying a small fleet to a council. Experience supplying public-sector or fleet customers, and the ability to meet the framework’s requirements for vehicle supply, would support a credible offer. The recorded purchase involved four vehicles, indicating a limited fleet requirement rather than a large-scale vehicle programme. The buyer selected a supplier through an established framework route, so framework participation and the ability to respond to its call-off process are commercially relevant.
