Summary of the contracting process

Scottish Fire and Rescue Service bought vehicle tracking and telematics services for its fleet under a multi-year contract. The requirement is fleet-wide vehicle telematics, a service covering vehicle monitoring and tracking. Scottish Fire and Rescue Service is the buyer; Scotland Excel conducted the procurement on its behalf but is not a party to, or manager of, the contract. Delivery is in Scotland.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. EDC Systems Ltd was selected and the contract was signed on 5 October 2026. The contract value is £233,046. The requirement was procured as one lot through a direct award under Lot 4 of the Government Commercial Agency Framework, rather than through a standalone competition. The recorded process method is open procedure, but the stated route for this procurement is the framework direct award. The data does not provide the award date or contract period, so the signing date is the only recorded contract date. No evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements are stated.

This award demonstrates Scottish Fire and Rescue Service’s demand for fleet-wide vehicle telematics. A future competitor would need to provide vehicle tracking and telematics services suitable for a fire and rescue fleet, and be able to deliver them across the fleet under a multi-year arrangement. The selected supplier, EDC Systems Ltd, is identified as an SME, showing that a supplier of that scale was able to win this requirement. The procurement used a framework direct award route, so familiarity with the relevant framework and its terms would be commercially relevant if the same requirement returns to market.
