## Summary

Orwell Housing Association Ltd procured fuel cards and associated services for its housing association operations. The requirement covers agency fuel cards (CPV 30163100) and related transactional services, including service responsiveness, issue handling and accurate invoicing. Delivery is across the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is based in Ipswich. This is a goods procurement delivered through a public-sector framework arrangement, with the selected supplier providing the cards and associated fuel-management service to Orwell Housing Association Ltd. The requirement is relevant to fuel-card providers, fleet-fuelling specialists and businesses able to support UK-wide vehicle fuel purchasing with reliable account administration and responsive customer service.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Allstar Business Solutions Ltd on 2 July 2026 through a selective call-off under the GCA framework. The procedure was an award under a framework and was non-competitive. There was one completed lot. The award value was £583,333 excluding VAT (£700,200 including VAT). The signed contract was dated 23 July 2026 and records a value of £583,333 excluding VAT (£700,000 including VAT). The contract period is recorded as 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2029, with two optional one-year extensions available, allowing a maximum end date of 31 July 2031. The award record separately gives a service start date of 8 August 2026.

This award indicates established demand from Orwell Housing Association for a UK-wide fuel-card service supporting operational vehicles and routine fuel purchasing. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to provide agency fuel cards at organisational scale, manage transactional fuel accounts accurately and support users across the United Kingdom. Relevant strengths include dependable service levels, prompt handling of card or account issues, accurate and transparent invoicing, and evidence of maintaining value for money throughout a multi-year arrangement. Suppliers should also be comfortable delivering through a public-sector framework call-off route and supporting a housing association with straightforward but ongoing service obligations rather than a one-off product supply.
