The Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner for Warwickshire (OPCC) on behalf of Warwickshire Police is seeking suppliers for vehicle recovery and associated services across Warwickshire as part of a preliminary market engagement to inform a future procurement. The service must remove, recover, store and process vehicles that are illegally, dangerously or obstructively parked, broken down, collision damaged, abandoned, stolen, or seized by police under legislation including Section 59 (Police Reform Act 2002), Section 165 (Road Traffic Act 1988) and Section 152 (Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005), and must be delivered in accordance with relevant legislation, guidance and Warwickshire Police policies. The current model uses three locally based recovery providers covering Lot 1 North Warwickshire and North Warwickshire Rural, Lot 2 South Warwickshire and Lot 3 Rugby; existing contracts expire on 30 June 2027 and a future contract is likely to be three years with possible extensions to a total of five years. Suppliers are invited to provide a summary of relevant experience and to complete the questionnaire for this engagement by 12:00 midday on 7 October 2026.

This could suit established vehicle recovery providers with a local Warwickshire presence and experience working with police or Blue Light organisations; key considerations include the need to demonstrate compliance with specific seizure legislation and Warwickshire Police procedures, readiness to operate across three geographic lots, and awareness that estimated contract values are indicative and any future contract will be subject to a full competitive tender.
