Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board requires an ad hoc heavy goods vehicle (HGV) transport service to support NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership Procurement Services and its business-as-usual distribution operations. The requirement is for resilient transport capacity rather than a one-off delivery, so suppliers should be able to provide HGV haulage when distribution needs arise. The work is associated with St Asaph, where the buyer is based, and delivery activity may cover the United Kingdom and wider destinations listed for the requirement, including Europe, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. This is a transport services opportunity for road haulage operators, fleet providers and logistics businesses.

The procurement has reached the tender stage: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure. Bids were due by 19 August 2026 at 12:00. The contract period set by the buyer runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. The requirement is presented as a single procurement rather than separate lots. It is classified as transport services, excluding waste transport, under CPV 60000000. The tender is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The contract is intended to support ad hoc HGV transport resilience during the stated twelve-month period. Suppliers need to consider the operational scope, delivery coverage and arrangements for responding to business-as-usual distribution requirements.

This opportunity suits HGV transport operators, logistics companies and fleet businesses able to provide resilient, ad hoc road transport for NHS-related distribution. It is particularly relevant to small and medium-sized enterprises, including firms with flexible vehicle and driver capacity that can respond to changing operational requirements. Suppliers should be able to organise heavy goods vehicle movements, manage deliveries across the stated geographical coverage and support routine distribution activity reliably. The requirement may suit businesses with an established logistics coordination function, suitable HGV vehicles and the operational capacity to handle work beyond a single local route. Companies offering dependable transport resilience and broad geographic reach are likely to be best placed to compete.
