## Summary

The procurement process led by the Police & Crime Commissioner for Merseyside & Chief Constable for Merseyside involves the purchase of specialist vehicles from KIA UK Limited. The contract was completed under the legal framework GCA RM6244 and is classified as a direct procurement, specifically below threshold without competition. This procurement concerns goods—specifically motor vehicles—and delivery is planned for regions across the United Kingdom, including but not limited to UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, and UKI. The procurement was initiated as a tender on 25th June 2026, with the contract already signed on 27th May 2026, and the period of performance set from 1st June 2026 to 31st May 2028. The contract, carrying a gross value of £360,000, represents a significant acquisition for providing operational vehicles to the regional police forces.

This tender offers a robust opportunity for businesses within the automotive industry, particularly those with expertise in supplying fleets to government or public sector entities. The procurement method of direct purchasing below the threshold implies an efficient process, with the main growth opportunities lying in servicing and supplying the vehicles under the contractual agreement. Businesses that are capable of meeting the high standards required by public authorities and that have a substantial operational scope are well-placed to compete in similar future tenders. Such contracts not only provide financial returns but also strengthen business credibility and expand network opportunities within the public procurement landscape.
