Coverage: 83 active published awards; 61 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Published-to-award variance compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

Procedure rationaleThe works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator for the following reason: absence of competition for technical reasons.
Welsh Government has set a target of de-carbonising Wales’ taxi and private hire vehicle (PHV) by 2028.In order to meet this target the purchase of 15 100% electric ZEV taxis, using WG funding, is required for Cardiff to initiate a ‘Try Before You Buy’ pilot scheme for taxi drivers.
The specification for the vehicles has been directed by WG with the aim of being London compliant; 100% electric with side access for safety.The Nissan Dynamo is the only 100% electric, London compliant, side access vehicle currently on the market that meets the WG specification and comes closest to the licensing of vehicles requirements. In order to be confident that Nissan Dynamo Taxis is the only acceptable supplier that can meet all three requirements, confirmation has been received by WG, Cenex, and Energy Trust (on behalf of the Low Carbon Vehicle Partnership). OLEV (via DfT funding) can also confirm that they will only fund the Nissan Dynamo or the LEVC (which has a range extender and therefore not 100% electric and does not meet the WG criteria due to CO2 emissions still evident). |
