## Summary

West Midlands Fire Service procured a leased Polestar 4 estate electric vehicle for employee use through a salary sacrifice scheme. The requirement is for vehicle leasing and supply, with the vehicle delivered in the West Midlands. Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust is identified as the supplier, while West Midlands Fire Service is the buyer. The procurement was made as a call-off from the ESPO Staff Benefit Framework (319_23). The vehicle is intended to form part of staff benefits rather than for general fleet use, so the requirement is specifically relevant to vehicle leasing providers able to supply electric estate cars through an employee salary-sacrifice arrangement.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust on 2 September 2026. The awarded contract value is £32,302.80. The stated contract period runs from 2 to 3 September 2026. The buyer used a competitive quotation below the applicable threshold, as a limited procedure and call-off from the ESPO Staff Benefit Framework. The estimated procurement value was £32,302.80. The published details identify a single vehicle requirement, rather than separate lots, and classify the purchase as a service. The tender response deadline was 1 September 2026 at 5pm. The process is marked complete; the selected supplier and award value are recorded, with the contract period shown above.

For suppliers considering similar requirements from West Midlands Fire Service, this award shows demand for a leased electric estate car supplied through an employee salary-sacrifice scheme and sourced via the ESPO Staff Benefit Framework. A credible competitor would need to provide suitable electric vehicles under lease and support the administrative and commercial arrangements needed to deliver vehicles as an employee benefit. Framework access and the ability to respond to competitive quotations would be relevant to competing through the route used here. The procurement records a single vehicle, so this is a focused supply requirement rather than evidence of a large fleet programme. Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust was selected for this requirement, demonstrating that the successful supplier was positioned to fulfil the vehicle lease through the stated framework arrangement.
