GCC Fleet Management System 2023

Descriptions

On 15th August 2022, Gloucestershire County Council (GCC) commenced the procurement of a Fleet Management System for its new Corporate Fleet Unit (CFU). r r Unfortunately, all the bids received were non-compliant, due to a number of significant requests for change in respect of the terms and conditions as published at time of the ITT. r r The Council decided that the only fair and realistic course of action was to abandon the procurement and develop a revised set of terms and conditions.r r Gloucestershire County Council (GCC) is advertising this opportunity to provide a Fleet Management System for its new Corporate Fleet Unit (CFU). r r The CFU is responsible for the maintenance and repair of a mixed vehicle fleet and includes vehicles operated by Gloucestershire Fire and Rescue Service (GFRS), as well as a number of fleets delivering service for Highways, Street works, social care and telecare. r GCC (including GFRS) currently runs and maintains a fleet of approximately 220 vehicles and is also responsible for ensuring that vehicles are operated fully in line with current laws, regulations and (from a fire perspective) community service SLA's.r r GFRS has an in-house vehicle workshop, where it maintains all its vehicles and equipment, whereas GCC uses an outsourced approach using external suppliers. r r We are looking to implement a fleet management system to record all aspects of fleet management in order to manage the fleet as currently we have two separate systems across GCC and GFRS. r r The contract shall be for a period four (4) years, with the option to extend for one (1) period of up to 12 months.r r A supplier presentation will take place on 6th March 2023 at Shire Hall, Gloucester, GL1 2THr r Tender Documents are available for unrestricted and full direct access, free of charge, at: https://www.supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk/r
