What is being bought

Published requirement description

The Authority sought tenders from suitable Contractors to undertake vehicle repairs to damaged motor vehicles following collisions. This Contract is predominantly for West Yorkshire Police fleet vehicles but may, from time to time, be utilised for repairs to third-party vehicles and also may be accessed by South Yorkshire Police.

The number of vehicles requiring repairs may vary, however as an indicative guide, the annual estimated spend for collision repairs across the West Yorkshire area is £1,200,000 with repair jobs ranging in value from £30 to £30,000.

  • Not divided into lots: Various options for Lots were considered for this Contract and a suitable solution was not identified. Co-ordinating vehicle repairs in relation to geographical Lots would create unnecessary and costly internal administrative burden. Having one main Contractor to receive notification of a collision repair requirement who can then co-ordinate the repairs based on available current resources and capacity was deemed the most efficient and cost-effective option.
  • How the procedure runs: This Competitive Flexible Procedure will be conducted in two (2) stages. STAGE ONE: TENDER STAGE - Tenders are invited from Suppliers with relevant experience and ability to demonstrate sufficient capacity for the provision of Collision Repair Services to Police and Third Party-Vehicles (the "Services"). Tenders will be evaluated in accordance with the process outlined within the tender documentation. Following the desktop evaluation, the highest-scoring tenderer will be identified as the preferred supplier and will move to Stage Two. STAGE TWO: PREFERRED SUPPLIER STAGE - due diligence assessments will be undertaken with the preferred supplier as outlined within the tender documentation. This stage will incorporate site visits to verify compliance with the specification and the tender proposal of the preferred Supplier.
