Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Purchase of Vehicles" was conducted by the London Ambulance Service NHS Trust, focusing on acquiring Volvo vehicles for operational use. The industry category is centred around "Motor vehicles" under the CPV classification 34100000. The procurement was carried out through a selective method as a call-off from a framework agreement, specifically CCS RM6244 lot 1, with the award phase marked as complete. The process began with a tender period that concluded on 2nd June 2025, followed by an active award on 10th September 2025, and the contract extends from 10th September 2025 to 9th September 2026. The tender addresses multiple locations, including SE1 8SD in London, British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the supply of motor vehicles, particularly those capable of providing operational use vehicles like Volvo. Although the London Ambulance Service NHS Trust chose a supplier through a framework agreement, businesses in the automotive industry with similar product offerings could look to secure future opportunities through similar public sector frameworks. The possibility of working with large public sector buyers provides not only a steady revenue stream but also increased prestige and market credibility, benefiting suppliers of all scales, though this specific procurement was not suitable for SMEs or VCSEs. Engaging in such opportunities can enhance market presence and facilitate business growth for automotive suppliers in the UK and related territories.
