Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the 999 A&E Ambulance Service contract has been carried out by NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board through a Direct Award Process A as part of the NHS Provider Selection Regime. The procurement falls under the 'services' category, specifically targeting ambulance services, with a focus on the healthcare sector. The contract, spanning from April 1, 2026, to March 31, 2027, involves collaborative efforts with various NHS Integrated Care Boards across South Yorkshire, Humber and North Yorkshire, Lancashire, and South Cumbria regions. It is awarded to the Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust, valued at £450,395,037, and was signed on March 31, 2026, reflecting its status as active in the award stage.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in healthcare logistics and emergency medical services, particularly those with expertise in ambulance operations and patient transportation within the Yorkshire and Humber region. Companies experienced in integrated urgent care services and non-emergency patient transport can find potential growth, as the contract ensures a "global sum" income that applies across multiple NHS commissioned services in the region. The limited procurement method adopted here—a process executed without prior publication due to technical reasons—indicates that businesses that can offer unique value propositions in emergency healthcare are well-suited to succeed in similar future tenders.
