## Summary

Coventry University procured services for a salary sacrifice car scheme for its employees. The requirement covered vehicle leasing, fleet management and associated vehicle services, including vehicle insurance administration, maintenance management, driver support, and vehicle collection and return. This is a vehicle-fleet management services opportunity, classified under CPV 50111100. The buying organisation is Coventry University, based in Coventry. Delivery was intended to cover the United Kingdom. The requirement combines employee benefit administration with the operational management of leased vehicles, so it is relevant to providers able to manage vehicle supply, employee leasing arrangements and supporting fleet services across a UK-wide programme.

The procurement has been awarded. Coventry University used a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, treating the requirement as a repetition of existing services and a modification of a legacy contract. The single lot was recorded as cancelled, but an active award was made to NHS Fleet Solutions c/o Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, with one bid recorded. The award date was 1 August 2026 and the contract was signed on 1 August 2026. The contract value is £240,000. Price was the stated award criterion. The contract is active. No contract duration is stated in the available outcome information.

This procurement demonstrates Coventry University’s demand for a managed salary sacrifice vehicle scheme rather than vehicle leasing alone. A credible future competitor would need to combine access to leased vehicles with administration of employee salary-sacrifice arrangements, insurance administration, maintenance coordination, driver support, and vehicle collection and return. The buyer used a limited route without prior publication, relying on an existing compliant procurement and contract provisions, so suppliers would need to understand contract modification and repeat-service routes as well as competitive tendering. The single bid and award to a large fleet-services provider indicate that the requirement suits an established operator with the systems, nationwide service coverage, operational capacity and integrated partner network to manage a university employee fleet programme.
