Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The South East Coast Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust has completed a procurement process for the acquisition of ten Ford electric vehicles through the RM6244 framework's Lot 5. This process, under the category of specialist vehicles, concluded with an award on 11th May 2026, with the contract period extending from that date until 10th May 2027. The value of the contract is £521,559, and the procurement method was selective, implementing a call-off from an existing framework agreement. The main location for delivery is Crawley, United Kingdom, with the postal code RH10 9BG. The tender was in the award stage as of 20th May 2026, reinforcing the commitment to sustainable transportation solutions in the region.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities for organisations specializing in electric vehicle supply and sustainable transport solutions, particularly those capable of engaging in selective procurement methods from framework agreements. While the buying entity prioritised the procurement using a selective process, opportunities remain for large-scale suppliers, such as Ford Motor Company Limited, which was awarded this tender. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) might find fewer opportunities in this particular procurement due to the suitability criteria outlined.
