Summary of the contracting process

The North West Ambulance Service NHS Trust is in the planning stage for a procurement process involving the conversion of Patient Emergency Services (PES) vehicles. The tender, titled "Patient Emergency Services Vehicle Conversions," falls under the category of vehicle conversion and reconditioning services, with the legalities governed by the UKPGA 2023/54. Situated in Bolton, United Kingdom, the procurement process is being conducted through a selective method under an award framework. Essential timelines to note include the planned contract period from 1 April 2026, to 31 March 2029, with a gross contract value of £12 million GBP.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the vehicle conversion sector, particularly those experienced in working with public authorities. Companies possessing the expertise to handle large-scale vehicle refurbishment projects will find this opportunity lucrative, given the substantial contract value and lengthy engagement. It is a strategic chance for suppliers already part of relevant frameworks or possessing the capabilities to offer competitive services within the specified delivery location of the UK region UKD. Businesses equipped to compete selectively based on these specifications will be particularly well-suited for collaboration with the NHS Trust in this capacity.
