## Summary

The procurement process for the provision of Class 810 and Class 222 vehicle storage is being conducted by Transport UK East Midlands Limited, formerly known as Abellio East Midlands Limited, with a company number of 09860485. This contract falls under the category of cargo handling and storage services and is based in the United Kingdom, specifically the East Midlands region (UKF). Initially organised into two lots, Lot 1 was meant for the warm storage of Class 810 vehicles, while Lot 2 was for cold storage of Class 222 vehicles. However, both lots have been discontinued following operational reviews conducted in accordance with Regulation 66 of the Utilities Contracts Regulations 2016. The latest updates showed that no awards will be made for these lots post-March 2026.

This procurement endeavoured to create opportunities leveraging the selective procurement method and the negotiated procedure with prior call for competition, focusing on businesses that can provide secure storage facilities for specialised vehicles. Companies with expertise in vehicle storage, particularly in maintaining large train units and ensuring necessary security measures—such as CCTV and secure fencing—would have been ideal candidates. However, as both storage lots have been cancelled, the current situation offers limited scope for business growth in this particular venture. Businesses might consider monitoring future announcements for similar contracts by Transport UK East Midlands Limited.
