## Summary

National Highways Limited is buying replacement pool cars under its Operation Pool Car replacement programme for 2026–27. The procurement is for goods, classified as specialist vehicles (CPV 34114000), and the title identifies Toyota vehicles. The buyer is National Highways Limited, based in Birmingham. Delivery locations are listed across the United Kingdom, Europe, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. This is a vehicle supply requirement rather than a works or service contract, and its stated purpose is to replace pool cars. The broad delivery footprint may matter to vehicle suppliers able to support supply and delivery across those locations.

The procurement is complete and Toyota was selected for the contract. The award was made on 18 September 2026, following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The estimated tender value and awarded contract value are both £504,113. The contract period runs from 21 September 2026 to 31 March 2027. The information does not break the requirement into lots or state an evaluation basis beyond the framework call-off route. National Highways marked the requirement as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The supplier and contract period are stated at the overall procurement level.

For suppliers of replacement pool vehicles, this award provides a clear example of National Highways’ fleet purchasing: a Toyota vehicle requirement delivered across a wide range of locations, including the UK and destinations overseas. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to supply suitable vehicles at organisational scale and demonstrate the ability to coordinate delivery across the buyer’s stated footprint. The route used here was a call-off from a framework agreement, so experience supplying through an appropriate framework would be relevant when this buyer next purchases replacement pool cars. National Highways classified this opportunity as unsuitable for SMEs and VCSEs, indicating that suppliers should assess whether their capacity and operating model can meet a substantial, geographically dispersed fleet requirement.
