## Summary

The Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has successfully awarded a contract for the provision of taxi services, valued at £120,000. This procurement falls within the transportation services industry, specifically classified under taxi services (CPV code: 60120000). The award follows an open tender process that concluded on 31 July 2018, with the contract period commencing on 1 October 2018 and set to run until 31 March 2020. The services will predominantly be utilised to transport patients between hospital sites and their homes, and potentially for the transportation of medical items.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for transport companies, especially those specialising in passenger services and medical-related transport, to expand their business. Companies capable of providing reliable and accessible taxi services in the East of England, particularly those experienced in working with healthcare providers, would be well-suited to compete in similar future tenders. Engaging with high-volume service needs, such as those stemming from the Trust's annual operations of nearly one million appointments, can help businesses tap into a stable and lucrative client base.
