Summary of the contracting process

The East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust initiated a procurement process for a Marketing Contacts Database, titled "EEAST - Marketing Contacts Database (250424)", under the legal framework 2023/54. This contract, primarily focused on providing marketing services, sought to enhance the Trust’s commercial service areas including TrainEEAST, CallEEAST, and the National Performance Advisory Group (NPAG). Located in Melbourn, the procurement process advanced through an open competition method below the specified threshold and required submissions via the Atamis e-Tendering Portal by 12:00 BST on 18th August 2025. Although the initial tender process was active, it concluded in a cancellation due to insufficient response as of 16th September 2025.

The tender presented numerous opportunities for businesses within the marketing industry to partner with a vital NHS Trust, potentially providing significant business growth avenues, particularly for SMEs and VCSEs. Organisations capable of supplying robust marketing databases and associated services, such as contact centres or training resources, would have been well-suited to competitively engage in this procurement. The contract offered incentives for long-term engagement, with the possibility of extension over two additional 12-month periods, aligning with businesses looking to secure sustained governmental partnerships and aid in the continuous advancement of the Trust's commercial services.
