Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process was initiated by the London Ambulance Service for the acquisition of Ford Transit vans. This contract falls under the Motor Vehicles category with a CPV code of 34100000 and involves multiple delivery locations including the United Kingdom and other British territories. The procurement was executed through a selective method as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender period ended on 5th August 2025, with the procurement reaching its award stage, and the contract period commencing on 5th October 2025. The total contract value was £93,000, awarded to Ford Motor Company Limited, a large-scale supplier, with the award notice published on 13th November 2025.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the automotive industry, particularly those capable of fulfilling large-scale orders for specialised vehicles. Although the contract was awarded to a prominent player, Ford Motor Company Limited, the framework agreement format often allows for future opportunities where similar organisations can compete for subsequent contracts. Businesses that specialise in manufacturing or supplying motor vehicles, especially those already part of such frameworks, could benefit from the growth prospects that such high-value contracts offer within the public sector.
