Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for "Vehicle Conversions" is organised by the London Ambulance Service NHS Trust, focusing on ambulance conversion services. It falls under the industry category of services with a CPV classification of 50117200. This procurement has reached the award stage, with a formal award issued on 4th July 2024, amounting to GBP 110,000. The contract period spans from 4th July 2024 until 13th March 2026. The procurement method used was a direct, single tender action for reasons of extreme urgency under PCR Reg.32(2)(c). Notably, the procurement location spans multiple regions, including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and Rest of the World.

This tender presents opportunities primarily for businesses specialising in vehicle and ambulance conversion services. Given that the procurement process utilised a direct method suited for urgent needs, businesses positioned as sole providers with the capability to deliver high-quality conversion services swiftly and efficiently are best suited to opportunities like this. However, this specific contract has already been awarded to Dragon Fleetcare Limited, a small to medium enterprise, highlighting the potential for SMEs with specialised skill sets to secure such contracts. Businesses interested in similar future opportunities should focus on developing niche expertise and maintaining readiness for urgent projects.
