The requirement combines fuel-card provision with access to fuel and charging services, for the group’s operations across the United Kingdom. This is a planned procurement for goods, rather than a current invitation to tender. Livv Housing Group is seeking input from interested contractors through an optional preliminary market-engagement exercise to help shape the final tender. Suppliers can provide basic details of their organisation and offer, including their geographical coverage, through an online questionnaire. The future formal tender is expected to be issued separately. The process is at planning stage: Livv Housing Group has announced its intention to procure, but has not yet invited bids. It expects the contract to run from 2 February 2027 to 1 February 2030. The requirement is marked as above the applicable threshold, but no contract value or budget is stated. The buyer is conducting voluntary preliminary market engagement, with questionnaire responses expected by 17:00 on 16 October 2026; participation is not a pre-qualification stage, does not affect eligibility to bid and confers no advantage in the later procurement. The buyer says a formal tender will follow separately. The procurement is planned as one lot, suitable for small and medium-sized businesses. No procedure, award method or evaluation criteria are set out at this stage. This will suit fuel-card providers able to supply cards covering diesel and petrol purchases as well as electric-vehicle charging, with geographical coverage across the United Kingdom. The buyer is seeking basic information about suppliers’ offerings and service coverage during its market-engagement exercise, so providers with a clear account of where and how their cards can be used can help inform the tender’s design. The single-lot structure may be relevant to smaller suppliers as well as larger providers. The buyer has not yet set out technical standards, accreditations, minimum capacity or experience requirements, so suppliers should avoid assuming these are settled. Engagement is optional and is not a qualification stage or a route to preferential treatment; the formal competition is intended to follow separately. This is an opportunity to prepare, not to submit a bid now. ## Notice Livv Housing Group are beginning a procurement process to appoint a fuel cards provider for the provision of diesel, petrol and EV charging. ### Planning Information Livv Housing Group is preparing to procure a contract for the provision of fuel cards and is inviting interested contractors to take part in a short, optional preliminary market engagement exercise ahead of the formal tender. This involves completing a short online questionnaire, covering your organisation's details, basic information about your offer, and geographical coverage information. Participation is voluntary, will not affect eligibility to bid, and does not constitute a pre-qualification stage or confer any advantage in the subsequent procurement. Responses will help inform the final shape of the tender. The questionnaire can be accessed at the link below and must be submitted by 17:00 on Friday 16th October 2026. The formal opportunity to bid will follow separately via a Tender Notice published on Find a Tender. https://forms.gle/cF5tJf8UdihMXZPo7 ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/093779-2026 | | Notice type | UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 5 Oct 2026 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 2 Feb 2027 - 1 Feb 2030 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Planning | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | Livv Housing Group | | Locality | PRESCOT | | Postcode area | Liverpool | | Postcode | L34 1PJ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD7 Merseyside | | ITL 3 | TLD71 East Merseyside | | Local authority | Knowsley | | Electoral ward | St Michaels | | Westminster constituency | Knowsley | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 09 - Petroleum products, fuel, electricity and other sources of energy - 30 - Office and computing machinery, equipment and supplies except furniture and software packages ### Codes - 09134200 - Diesel fuel - 09310000 - Electricity - 30163100 - Agency fuel cards ## Release History - 5 Oct 2026 at 12:43 - Planning - UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/093779-2026 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/093779-2026 5th October 2026 - Preliminary market engagement notice on Find a Tender ## Notice URLs - https://forms.gle/cF5tJf8UdihMXZPo7 - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
