The procurement process is currently in the Tender stage, with an open procedure method, allowing all eligible bidders to participate. The tender period is set to close on 26th October 2020, and the contract is expected to commence on 19th November 2020, lasting until 18th November 2025. The project is classified under the Motor Vehicles industry category, based in Solihull, West Midlands, United Kingdom. This tender presents a valuable opportunity for companies involved in vehicle supply, including manufacturers, fleet management service providers, and environmentally conscious firms offering sustainable vehicle options. Bidders with expertise in vehicle maintenance, replacement strategies, and environmentally friendly technologies would be particularly well-suited to compete. Successful tenderers will not only secure a long-term contract with the council but may also contribute to significant improvements in local air quality through the adoption of greener vehicle technologies. ## Notice Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council operates a fleet of 47 vehicles across a range of vehicle types/specifications e.g. small vans, standard saloons/people carriers and special needs minibuses to larger Tanker Services and Street Lighting vehicles. The Council wishes to explore a number of options regarding the replacement of all of the vehicles as they reach the termination date of the current lease hire arrangements. The Council will be looking to tenderers to use their market expertise and product knowledge to advise on the most economic and operationally advantageous means by which vehicles can be replaced. This will include advice on options for arrangements including breakdown and recovery of vehicles, windscreen, glass and tyre replacement arrangements, etc. In particular, the Council has a vision to eliminate or minimise air pollution and accordingly is interested in exploring all possible environmentally friendly vehicle options as part of this tender exercise and will be looking to forge a partnership with the successful tenderer to receive on-going advice and support in this matter.
