Summary of the contracting process

The London Ambulance Service NHS Trust (LAS) has recently completed the procurement process for internal audit services, as indicated by the award and contract stage. This project was classified under the statutory audit services sector with the CPV code 79212300. The contract, titled "LAS Internal Audit Services," is a part of the health industry and involves services within the region of London, UK. The procurement method was limited, described as an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, due to being part of an existing framework agreement. Key dates include the contract award date on 3rd June 2026. The process involved a mini-competition conducted via the East of England NHS Procurement Hub.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses in the statutory audit and consultancy services sector, especially those that are already part of established procurement frameworks. Large established firms, such as RSM UK Consulting LLP, have already been awarded a contract valued at £487,499, which was determined based on a balance of quality (60%) and price (40%). The procurement method serves as a prime example of how existing frameworks can provide distinct competitive advantages for businesses, especially those with established capabilities in delivering high-quality audit services. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may also find potential opportunity in such frameworks where other competitive openings might arise in the future.
