Summary of the contracting process

The London Ambulance Service NHS Trust is buying security seals and tags for use by the ambulance service. This is a goods requirement for security equipment, intended to provide security sealing under contract to the Trust. The award covers one lot. Delivery is stated as being in the United Kingdom; no more specific delivery place is identified. The requirement is specifically for the London Ambulance Service rather than a broader NHS supply arrangement.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Versapak International Limited on 14 September 2026. The award value is £120,000 excluding VAT (£144,000 including VAT). The contract period runs from 7 October 2026 to 6 October 2028, with an option to extend for one year plus a further year; the stated maximum extent is 7 October 2028. The procurement was described as below threshold, with the method recorded as unknown. It was organised as a single lot. The published data does not set out an evaluation basis or supplier eligibility conditions.

This award demonstrates recurring demand from the London Ambulance Service NHS Trust for security seals and tags, supplied as security equipment for ambulance operations. A credible competitor would need to provide suitable security sealing products and be able to supply the Trust reliably throughout a multi-year contract, including any extension period. The selected supplier was Versapak International Limited, identified as an SME, showing that this requirement has been met by a small or medium-sized business. Suppliers with relevant product capability and the operational capacity to support the Trust’s ongoing supply needs are best placed to compete when this requirement next reaches the market.
