Summary of the contracting process

Aberdeenshire Council is seeking vehicle telematics and tachograph systems and services for its fleet, with CCTV included in one lot as a priced option for a possible future need. The requirement covers supply of a vehicle management and tracking system, tachograph services including downloads and analysis, and CCTV solutions; the council’s own staff will install the equipment. Suppliers unable to provide CCTV can bid for telematics and tachograph services alone. The procurement is divided into two lots: telematics and tachographs, and telematics, CCTV and tachographs. Delivery is for the council’s fleet in Aberdeenshire. This is a goods procurement, combining vehicle equipment and supporting software and services.

The council invited offers through a tender using an open procedure. The submission deadline was 16 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The contract period is 1,800 days, with an extension option of up to 24 months. No total or lot values are stated. Bids are assessed on quality, weighted at 60%, and price, weighted at 40%, in both lots; variants are not permitted. Suppliers may bid for either or both lots. To qualify, bidders must provide both telematics and tachograph systems, including tachograph downloads and analysis; submit two examples of similar services delivered in the preceding three years; and provide recent audited accounts or equivalent information. Financial checks apply, and bidders must meet the stated insurance requirements. The council also considers community benefits, including fair work and environmental measures.

This suits suppliers able to provide and support vehicle telematics and tachograph systems, including data downloads and analysis; suppliers offering CCTV can also compete for the broader lot, while those without CCTV capability can pursue the telematics-and-tachographs lot. The council will install the equipment, so bidders need not base their offer on carrying out installation. Applicants need relevant recent delivery experience and the financial standing to pass credit checks. The stated minimum insurance cover is £5 million for employers’ liability where applicable and £5 million for public/product liability. Suppliers should be able to supply two examples of comparable work from the previous three years and provide audited annual accounts, or equivalent financial information. The requirement also includes community benefits, with examples covering fair work, environmental action, prompt supply-chain payment, placements and STEM engagement.
