## Summary

West Sussex County Council is undertaking the procurement of 35 Flexi Duty System (FDS) vehicles, specifically designed for operational staff, under the title "WSCC - JS - CCS Vehicle Purchase - Lot 6 - 35 x Fire FDS Vehicles." This initiative falls within the rescue vehicles industry category and is located in West Sussex, United Kingdom. Currently in the Award stage, the contract was published on 15th February 2021, while the delivery period begins from 12th August 2019 and concludes on 31st March 2020. The total contract value is £920,143, with Volkswagen Group UK Ltd emerging as the awarded supplier.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for businesses keen on supplying specialised vehicles and their necessary conversions. Companies with expertise in providing turn-key solutions, particularly those that can coordinate sub-contractors for the installation of sirens, lighting, and communication systems, will find this tender particularly aligned with their capabilities. As the procurement seeks to replace existing operational vehicles nearing the end of their life cycle, potential bidders are encouraged to showcase innovative and effective vehicle solutions that cater to emergency services.

## Notice

The Council is seeking to purchase 35 x Flexi Duty System (FDS) vehicles with Blue Light Conversion to support staff as part of their operational duties. Currently, eligible staff are provided with Hyundai IX35 vehicles (purchased in 2014) that are approaching the end of their operational life. The purpose of this RFQ is to seek quotes for a replacement vehicle that will continue to meet their needs as operational staff. The replacement vehicles will be subject to a blue light conversion that includes the installation of sirens, lighting and communication equipment. The Council is looking for a 'turn-key' solution with the winning bidder expected to coordinate this element using sub-contractors or their own internal supply chain. The goods under the contract are described in detail in Attachment 02 the Specification. The delivery of the vehicles can be discussed with the winning bidder but the preference is for phased delivery over a number week, approximately 5 per week, with delivery completed by 31st March 2020
