## Summary

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Gloucestershire is procuring vehicle livery and high-conspicuity marking services for police transport fleets. The requirement covers the design, supply, application and removal of standard Battenberg livery and one-off special designs, including force crests and bespoke designs. Vehicles and ancillary items include cars, light and medium vans, larger vehicles, motorcycles, boats, horse boxes and trailers. The service is intended for Avon and Somerset, Devon and Cornwall, Dorset, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire Police Forces, with other regional forces able to use the arrangement if they express interest. The procurement is categorised as vehicle parts and accessories. It is a goods requirement involving a continuing operational service for police fleet vehicles.

The procurement has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure. Bids were to be submitted electronically in English by 10 September 2026 at 12:00. The evaluation and award decision was due by 14 October 2026 at 23:59. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2030, with an optional 12-month extension available until 30 December 2031. The estimated value is £600,000 excluding VAT, or £720,000 including VAT. There is one lot, and the tender is above the relevant threshold.

This opportunity suits vehicle-livery specialists able to manage the full service from design through removal across varied police and ancillary vehicle types.

Experience delivering compliant, durable and consistent fleet markings would be directly relevant.
