Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, conducted by Walsall Healthcare NHS Trust, concerns the intention to award a contract for Mental Health Secure Patient Transport services, categorised under the services industry with the CPV classification of ambulance services. The procurement stage has reached the award phase, with the notice published on 27th November 2025. This contract follows the Provider Selection Regime and not the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, implying a more tailored selection process under the Health Care Services Regulations 2023. Key dates include the deadline for representations by providers, set for 9th December 2025, with services to be delivered at Walsall Hospital, located in the UKG38 region. The procurement was executed using a limited method without prior competition publication.

For businesses operating in the healthcare services sector, especially those offering patient transport solutions, this intention to award notice presents an opportunity to engage with Walsall Healthcare NHS Trust. Given that this award was conducted through a direct award process, it suggests a promising scenario for existing providers, particularly those recognised as small to medium enterprises (SMEs) with speciality in ambulance or patient transport services. Companies that are already well-versed in the regulatory framework of the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 would find themselves at an advantage to compete in this or similar future tenders. The involvement of Pegasus Medical (1808) Limited as a supplier indicates the potential for SMEs to participate and secure contracts of this nature, valued approximately at £55,000.
