Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the purchase of Volvo XC60 cars for operational use was conducted by the London Ambulance Service NHS Trust. This procurement falls under the motor vehicles industry category, specifically classified under CPV code 34100000. The contract was part of a framework agreement sourced through the Crown Commercial Service (CCS) RM6244 - Specialist Vehicles lot 1. The process utilised a selective procurement method and concluded with an award in the "complete" status. Key dates include the tender period which ended on 1st September 2025, followed by the contract period spanning from 6th October 2025 to 5th October 2026. The cars are to be delivered to the London area, with postal codes around SE1 8SD, United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in vehicle manufacturing or supply, particularly those capable of forming partnerships with public health organisations. Companies that specialise in the delivery of specialist vehicles and have experience with public sector procurement, especially those familiar with framework agreements, would be well-positioned to compete in similar future opportunities. Although this particular contract was awarded to Volvo Car UK Limited, the focus on operational vehicles used by a prominent health service highlights the potential for sustained demand in this sector, presenting avenues for growth and engagement with NHS trusts and broader public services.
