Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for "YAS 290 2025_26 (DA Non FW) Training Manikins HART," carried out by the Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust, concluded recently. The procurement involved the purchasing of training manikins for the Hazardous Area Response Team (HART), a project within the goods category, specifically simulators (CPV code 34150000). Based in Wakefield, the procurement was awarded through a direct award method, completed on 30th January 2026, with the contract period spanning from 11th February 2026 to 10th February 2027. This direct award was due to the necessity and specification that only one supplier, RUTH LEE LIMITED, could fulfill, located in Corwen, Wales. The value of the contract was noted at £12,103.20, with a net amount of £10,086.00.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in manufacturing or providing training equipment, particularly those with capabilities in producing high-quality simulators for emergency response training. Companies with expertise in fulfilling highly specific requirements in the health and emergency services sector may find similar tenders beneficial for growth. The direct award nature indicates a niche market where specialised capabilities offer a competitive edge. As only specific suppliers can meet such requirements, businesses looking to enter this market should focus on developing niche expertise and fostering relationships with public sector bodies like the Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust.
