UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

South Western Railway Limited is procuring emergency medical technician and paramedic services at its designated railway stations. The requirement covers medical personnel and paramedical support for incidents and emergencies at stations across London, the South East, the South West, the West Midlands and the East of England. This is a services contract for suppliers able to provide emergency healthcare personnel in a railway-station environment. The buyer is South Western Railway Limited, a public undertaking. The work is geographically spread across the South Western Railway station network and the additional designated locations identified by the buyer. Suppliers should review the tender documents for the precise station list, service specification and operational arrangements.

The procurement has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure. It is a utilities procurement with one lot. The tender submission deadline was 18 September 2026 at 23:59 BST, and the award decision was due by 9 October 2026 at 23:59 BST. The contract period is from 1 December 2026 to 30 November 2028, with extensions possible by mutual agreement up to 30 November 2030. The estimated value is £1,800,000 excluding VAT and £2,160,000 including VAT. Electronic submission is allowed in English. Evaluation is weighted 60% quality, 10% social value and 30% price. The lot is identified as suitable for SMEs.

This opportunity suits healthcare providers able to supply emergency medical technicians and paramedics for deployment at railway stations. Suppliers will need the personnel, management arrangements and operational resilience to respond across a geographically dispersed station network covering several English regions. Relevant experience in emergency medical response, paramedic or medical-personnel services, and working in busy public or transport environments would place a supplier well to compete. The requirement is also suitable for SMEs, which may benefit providers with a focused emergency-care workforce and the capacity to coordinate multiple locations. Providers should assess their ability to recruit, schedule and support appropriately capable staff across the designated stations, and to demonstrate service quality and social value in their offer.
