## Summary

Devon and Cornwall Police is procuring the design, supply, application and removal of vehicle livery for its own fleet and collaborating police forces. The work covers cars, light and medium vans, larger vehicles, motorcycles, boats, horse boxes, trailers and other ancillary items. Suppliers must provide standard police Battenberg markings to the authorities’ requirements, as well as one-off special liveries, force crests and bespoke designs. The livery must meet the cited Home Office and police vehicle-marking specifications, including Chapter 8 vehicle markings. The participating forces named include Avon and Somerset, Devon and Cornwall, Dorset, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Kent, Norfolk, Suffolk and North Yorkshire, alongside other collaborating forces. The procurement is for vehicle conversion kits and associated livery services.

The buyer invited offers through a competitive flexible procedure, as a further competition under the BLC0262 Vehicle Livery and Associated Services framework. The tender was published on 30 October 2026. The deadline for questions was 5 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC, and the bid deadline was 18 November 2026 at 17:00 UTC. The planned award decision date was 9 December 2026. The single lot has an estimated gross value of £1.2 million. The contract period is 1 January 2027 to 31 October 2031. Evaluation is weighted 60% on price, 30% on quality and 10% on social value. English is the stated submission language; the procurement details say offers are submitted through the Atamis e-tendering portal.

This opportunity suits vehicle-livery and fleet-conversion suppliers able to deliver end-to-end design, supply, application and removal across a varied police fleet, from cars and motorcycles to boats, trailers and larger specialist vehicles. Competitors need the production and installation capability to handle both repeatable standard Battenberg schemes and bespoke one-off designs, including force crests. They must be able to work to the stated Home Office Scientific Development Branch police-livery specifications and Chapter 8 vehicle-marking requirements. The scale and multi-force scope favour suppliers able to coordinate service across several police organisations and accommodate different vehicle types and individual force requirements. Small and medium-sized businesses are expressly considered suitable to compete. Quality and social value together account for 40% of the evaluation, so proposals must address more than price alone.
