Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process managed by the Department of Health & Social Care involves the "National Mobilisation Application (NMA)" initiative aimed at providing a mobile data vehicle solution to NHS Ambulance Services. The project, initially in the planning phase, was being developed for national implementation under the guidance of the Ambulance Radio Programme. The procurement was intended to deliver software packages and information systems, falling under the goods category, with a planned contract period starting from 22 June 2027 to 21 June 2029, with potential extensions up to 2031. However, as of 30 June 2026, the tender was withdrawn, with the procurement notices having been issued in error, thus cancelling any formal procurement plans at this time.

Despite the cancellation, future opportunities in similar projects may emerge, particularly for businesses specialising in software and information systems tailored to healthcare and emergency services. Companies with expertise in mobile data solutions and a track record in supporting large-scale public sector programmes could find growth potential in upcoming tenders from the Department of Health & Social Care. Engaging with planning notices and maintaining readiness for potential re-announcements can position businesses advantageously for future procurement opportunities within the NHS framework.
