Summary of the contracting process

Yorkshire Ambulance Service procured Butterfly ultrasound diagnostic devices, classified as diagnostic equipment (CPV 33124100). This is a goods requirement, rather than a service or construction contract. The stated delivery location is Wakefield, at the ambulance service’s address; a second delivery entry identifies the country as the United Kingdom. The procurement title also identifies the requirement as “Butterfly Ultrasound”.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to BFLY Operations Inc. DBA Butterfly Network. The award date was 23 September 2026. The awarded value is £16,269.01, within the original estimated range of £13,557.51 to £16,269.01. The contract period runs from 10 September 2026 to 9 September 2031. The buyer used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 9 September 2026 at 12:00. No lots are identified. The stated suitability assessment rules out SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The release records no evaluation criteria.

For suppliers who did not win, this award evidences Yorkshire Ambulance Service’s demand for Butterfly ultrasound diagnostic devices through a framework call-off, with a contract period of five years. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to supply the specified ultrasound equipment and be positioned to compete through the relevant framework route. The award went to BFLY Operations Inc. DBA Butterfly Network, providing a concrete benchmark for the type of supplier selected. The stated suitability excludes SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so this route is geared towards suppliers outside those categories. The procurement concerns equipment for the ambulance service, not a broader diagnostic services or works opportunity.
