This contract, titled "24112 Further competition under TPPL Framework Fleet Rental Lot 4 for the Supply of Vehicles for Adult Social Care and Children's Fleet," falls within the transport services industry (excluding waste transport) and will operate in the East of England, specifically across Cambridgeshire County. The procurement stage is currently at the 'Award' phase, with the award being announced on 30th September 2025. The contract, valued at approximately £1,778,400 GBP, will commence on 13th October 2025 and is set to run for four years, with an optional extension for an additional two years. This selective procurement process was a call-off from a framework agreement, indicating it was invite-only for framework-listed bidders. This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses capable of supplying and managing fleet vehicles, especially those that are SMEs or VCSEs. As the focus is on transport services for Adult Social Care and Children's Services, companies with experience in providing adaptable and well-organised vehicle rental services tailored to social care needs could find valuable growth opportunities. Given the contract's value and length, businesses can secure a stable revenue stream and build long-term relationships with the Cambridgeshire County Council. Furthermore, the framework agreement setup suggests that suppliers on the TPPL framework have a distinct advantage, affirming the importance of joining relevant frameworks to access such opportunities. ## Notice We are seeking to procure a service that offers a suitable and flexible fleet vehicle supply solution. Our approach is to obtain a maximum of 22 wheelchair-accessible vehicles. Currently we commission 22 fleet vehicles, consisting of 15 vehicles that support Adult Social Care and home-to-school transport, 4 vehicles that are procured on behalf of Children's Services, and 3 vehicles that are sub-leased to service user groups, who club together to access their vehicles through our contractual arrangements. These vehicles will be distributed throughout Cambridgeshire County. We aim to secure long-term vehicles for our 19-vehicle core fleet, where drivers are employed to deliver services, as well as for day centres experiencing high demand. For the remaining vehicles, we plan to utilise short-term hire options that provide the best value for money to meet demand and address service challenges This procurement will be for 48 months with the option to extension for a further 24 months in 12 month intervals. The procurement will be a further competition under the TPPL Framework Fleet Rental Lot 4 - applying will be only to the bidders who are currently on the framework and not other bidders will be able to apply. To be clear this is a call off on an invite only basis ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a781fc49-34e9-4845-a44a-9ca2990f72a7 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Call-off from a framework agreement | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Planning, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 30 Sep 2025 | | Submission deadline | 15 Aug 2025 | | Future notice date | 14 Feb 2025 | | Award date | 29 Sep 2025 | | Contract period | 12 Oct 2025 - 12 Oct 2029 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £1,778,400 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £242,918 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CAMBRIDGESHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL | | Locality | HUNTINGDON | | Post town | Peterborough | | Postcode | PE28 4YE | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLH East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLH4 Cambridgeshire and Peterborough | | ITL 3 | TLH42 Cambridgeshire CC | | Local authority | Huntingdonshire | | Electoral ward | The Stukeleys | | Westminster constituency | Huntingdon | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | LONDON HIRE | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 60 - Transport services (excl.
