## Summary

The NHS Wakefield CCG is seeking to procure dedicated hospital transport and support services under a three-year contract, with an option to extend for an additional two years. This service will operate from 7am to 11pm on weekdays and 10am to 6pm on weekends and bank holidays, providing transport for patients discharged from local hospitals in the Yorkshire and the Humber region. The tender, classified under health services and valued at £1,750,000, is currently in the tender stage, with submissions due by 22 September 2017 at 12:00.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) interested in the healthcare transport sector. Businesses with expertise in patient transport services, logistics management, and healthcare support would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. By securing this service, successful bidders could not only enhance their service portfolio but also establish long-term relationships with the NHS and contribute to patient care in the community.
