## Summary

South Cambridgeshire District Council has concluded the "Abandoned Vehicles Contract," which involves services for the collection, storage, and disposal of abandoned vehicles across South Cambridgeshire. The main industry categories for this procurement are vehicle towing-away and demolition services. The contract was awarded to CAMBRIDGE CAR SOLUTIONS LIMITED for a gross total of £48,000. The contract started on 3rd August 2026, running until 2nd August 2029, with potential extensions available for up to two additional years. The procurement method used was an open competition below the threshold, initially launched with a tender notice on 15th May 2026, and the award was made on 30th June 2026.

This contract presents opportunities for businesses specialising in vehicle collection and disposal services by allowing companies to collaborate with a significant public sector body. Such contracts typically favour enterprises with the necessary capacity to manage a diverse range of vehicle types. Small and medium-sized enterprises, in particular, are well-positioned to compete in this tender due to the specific procurement conditions favouring SMEs. The business involved will need to demonstrate the ability to handle collection logistics and comply with contractual terms, potentially leading to increased business opportunities and revenue streams over the contract's term.
