Tender description
The purpose of this Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) is to gauge interest from the market and to investigate potential options for a contract for Removal, Storage and Disposal of Abandoned Vehicles. The responses will shape the key issues that relate to the attractiveness of the tender and refine the approach to the design of the commercial model which will underpin the contract itself. It will also inform the decision-making process that needs to be undertaken prior to any potential future procurement. This is not an invitation to bid, this is solely a request for information (RFI), and no direct business will be awarded as a result of completing this RFI. Responding to this document does not advantage or disadvantage any supplier in any future procurement process. No supplier selection or supplier preference is implied. Keywords: Abandoned vehicles

About the buyer
Leicestershire County Council buys as a local authority, advertising larger contracts on the government's Find a Tender service. Smaller contracts appear separately on Contracts Finder, the portal for lower-value public work. Some contracts also run through frameworks set up by outside bodies, including ESPO, and suppliers apply to join those directly. The council itself trades nationally as ESPO, running framework agreements for public bodies nationwide. A two-year procurement plan on the council's open data site lists contracts still to come. Suppliers must also register on Find a Tender, a requirement since April 2026.
UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).
Over the past 5 years, most of Leicestershire County Council's contract awards have been in transport services, construction work and architectural and engineering services.
