Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for converting six Mercedes vehicles into Equipment Support Vehicles was managed by the London Ambulance Service NHS Trust. This process falls under the industry category of motor vehicle conversion services and includes locations across the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom. The procurement method used was selective, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, and the procurement stage is complete with an award made on the 30th of October 2025. The contract commenced on the same date and will end on the 29th of October 2026. The award, valued at 294,000 GBP, was published on the 23rd of December 2025.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in vehicle conversion services, particularly those with the capacity to manage large, framework-agreement-based projects. SAGA Truck and Van Ltd, the awarded supplier, exemplifies the type of company well-suited for this contract, likely due to their expertise and capability in delivering specialised vehicle conversion services. Although the tender was not designed specifically for SMEs or VCSEs, larger enterprises in the sector may find opportunities for growth in similar future contracts by aligning their services to meet the needs of repeat public sector clients like the London Ambulance Service NHS Trust.
