## Summary

The Metropolitan Police Service has completed the procurement process for "The Provision of Parts for Met Police Vehicles". This contract falls under the industry category of "Repair, maintenance and associated services of vehicles and related equipment" (CPV 50100000). The procurement process involved a negotiated procedure without prior publication due to extreme urgency. The contract, valued at £499,000, is set to begin on 3rd July 2024 and end on 2nd July 2026. Key dates include the contract award date of 2nd July 2024 and the end of the tender period on 1st July 2024. The services will be delivered within London, United Kingdom.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses within the automotive repair and maintenance sector, particularly those capable of quickly mobilising and meeting stringent technical requirements. Given the unique and urgent nature of the procurement, large-scale enterprises with a proven track record of working with governmental bodies are well-suited to compete. The Metropolitan Police Service’s engagement with Ford Motor Company Limited underscores the need for reliable suppliers capable of maintaining critical service continuity. Businesses specialising in vehicle parts and services, especially those with previous public sector experience, would find opportunities in similar future projects.

## Notice

The contracting authority awards this contract under the regulation 32 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (use of the negotiated procedure without prior publication), primarily under regulation 32(2)(c) where, for reasons of extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable by the contracting authority, the time limits for the open or restricted procedures or competitive procedures with negotiation cannot be complied with. The factual basis to support this activity arises from the administration process regarding the originally awarded contractor resulting in a complete end to services. Consequently the contracting authority had to at pace insource a number of critical services to provide to itself as well as engage elements of the previously established and on-boarded supply chain for services it is not able to provide to itself. For services the contracting authority cannot provide to itself it also applies regulation 32(2)(b)(ii) where, for technical reasons competition is absent, specifically where on-boarding of economic entities outside of the previous supply chain is not possible without causing the contracting authority to suffer a complete absence of service provision across a number of critical areas for an indefinite period. Accordingly, the specific choice of economic operator is on the basis of extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable by the contracting authority coupled with an absence of competition, for technical reasons, due to the economic operator's capability to on-board within the contracting authority's timescales and meet its essential technical requirements. The selection of the award economic operator is not the result of an artificial narrowing down of the parameters of the procurement by the contracting authority and no reasonable alternative or substitute exists.
