Summary of the contracting process

The Chief Constable for Hampshire and the Isle of Wight procured medical advisory and clinical governance services for Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary and Thames Valley Police. The appointed provider gives independent pre-hospital clinical advice, opinion and support on first aid and extended medical skills taught, practised and performed by police officers and staff. The work focuses on managing severe and life-threatening injuries, helping the forces maintain appropriate clinical standards for these skills. It is a specialist medical personnel service delivered across Hampshire and the Thames Valley, for two police organisations working together under the arrangement.

The procurement is complete and was awarded directly without competition as a below-threshold contract. The contract was awarded to The Atacc Group Ltd and signed on 8 September 2026. It runs from 8 September 2026 to 7 September 2029. Its value is £30,000 excluding VAT, or £36,000 including VAT. The procurement used one lot and the contract remains active. Evaluation was not competitive because the buyer used a direct award below the applicable threshold. The Chief Constable for Hampshire and the Isle of Wight is the buyer, while Thames Valley Police is the procuring organisation using the contract. The requirement concerns medical advisory services rather than goods or construction.

This requirement demonstrates demand for a specialist provider able to combine clinical governance with operational pre-hospital medicine in a policing environment. A credible competitor would need clinicians with strong knowledge of first aid and extended medical skills, and the ability to advise independently on the assessment and management of severe and life-threatening injuries. It would also need to support both training and practical application by police officers and staff, translating clinical standards into clear operational advice. The buyer’s use of a direct, below-threshold route and the involvement of two police organisations indicate that suppliers should be able to provide a focused service across a multi-force operating area, with dependable professional capacity and relevant public-sector or emergency-care experience.
