Summary of the contracting process

Dorset Clinical Commissioning Group is currently seeking potential providers for the Non-Emergency Patient Transport Service (NEPTS), a service focused on delivering safe and efficient transport for NHS patients in Dorset. The procurement process is in the Planning stage, highlighted by an invitation to a Market Engagement Event scheduled for 17th May 2022. Interested suppliers should respond by 10th May 2022. The contract period is set to commence on 1st July 2023 and end on 30th June 2028, with an indicative value of £6,600,000 attributed to this project.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those in the health and social care sector, to expand their services within the NHS framework. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly well-suited to participate, given their ability to be responsive and flexible in service delivery. Companies that can demonstrate capacity and reliability in providing transport services will likely benefit from this engagement, which seeks to optimise solutions for NHS patients in the South West region of the UK.
