Summary of the contracting process

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is procuring a Non-Ambulatory Patient Transport Service through a selective tender process. This contract is aimed at transporting non-ambulatory patients requiring conveyance on stretchers, trolleys, or chairs across various NHS sites in Glasgow and Lanarkshire. The tender period ended on 5th February 2019, and the contract, awarded on 1st May 2020, has a total estimated value of £2,000,000 GBP.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the healthcare logistics sector, especially those specializing in patient transport services.
