545_17 Vehicle Telematics and Associated Products & Service

A national framework agreement with multiple suppliers for vehicle telematics provision to public sector organisations. It is envisaged that most of the customers accessing the framework will have a requirement for a vehicle telematics system suitable for cars and light commercial vehicles.

However, some customers may wish to use the framework to procure a telematics solution for their specialist vehicles, e.g. winter gritting vehicles, snow ploughs and refuse collection vehicles. The framework agreement has the option to extend for up to a further 24 months.

The total estimated value stated includes the option period. An eAuction process may be used to award subsequent call off contracts following the reopening of competition among the parties to the Framework Agreement.

As a Central Purchasing Body as defined by the EU Procurement Directive 2014/24/EU, the Framework Agreement is open for use by Public Bodies (defined https://www.espo.org/ESPO/media/Documents/FAQs/ESPO-s_pow...) that also fall into one of the following classifications of user throughout all administrative regions of the UK: Local Authorities; Educational Establishments (including Academies); Central Government Departments and Agencies; Police, Fire & Rescue and Coastguard Emergency Services; NHS and HSC Bodies, including Ambulance Services; Registered Charities; Registered Social Landlords; or any public body established by or under the Scotland Act 1998 or any Act of the Scottish Parliament.
