## Summary

Liverpool City Council procured the leasing of 27 vehicles for operational staff. The vehicles support the Council’s Sustainable Transport, Highways and Parking Operations team, whose work includes management and supervision, health and safety audits, enforcement and highway inspections across the city region. The underlying purpose is to support compliance with the Council’s responsibilities under the Highways Act 1980 and help protect the public, contractors and Council staff. This is a vehicle leasing services requirement rather than a vehicle purchase, covering operational vehicles used in highways, parking and related public-sector field services. The buying organisation is Liverpool City Council, and the requirement is delivered across the city region.

The procurement has been awarded. Liverpool City Council used a limited award procedure without prior publication of a competition, procuring through the compliant CCSRM6268 framework. Three bids were recorded and price was the sole award criterion. Kinto UK was selected as supplier, with an awarded contract value of £318,023. The contract was signed on 27 July 2026 and is recorded as active. The procurement was structured as one lot, although that lot is recorded as cancelled while the related award remains active. The published outcome therefore identifies Kinto UK as the awarded supplier for the vehicle leasing requirement. No contract duration or end date is stated in the procurement outcome.

This outcome demonstrates a defined requirement for fleet leasing to support a local authority’s highways, transport and parking operations. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement would provide and manage operational vehicles suitable for staff carrying out inspections, enforcement, audits, supervision and other mobile field duties. Credibility would come from demonstrable experience in public-sector or similarly controlled fleet leasing, the capacity to supply 27 vehicles, and reliable arrangements for keeping operational vehicles available for dispersed teams. Familiarity with framework-based public procurement and the ability to compete primarily on price would also be relevant. Fleet providers able to support safety-critical highway operations and the practical needs of council staff would be well aligned with this buyer’s requirement.
