## Summary

The procurement process conducted by NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), also known as The Common Services Agency, involved the purchase of four mobile breast screening units for delivery between the financial years 2025/2026 and 2026/2027. The contract was awarded in September 2025 to Lynton Trailers (UK) Ltd, with the first two units expected by 31 March 2026. This open procedure falls under the industry category of "Vehicle bodies, trailers or semi-trailers" with a specific delivery location in Uphall, West Lothian, United Kingdom. The process, identified under the project code NP100225, was part of an open procurement method covered by the GPA, with the fixed cost contract signed on 10 September 2025 for a value of £925,416. The procurement stage has advanced from the tender phase in June 2025 to the award and active contract stage as of September 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in manufacturing or modifying vehicle bodies and trailers, especially those capable of meeting the technical and quality requirements that accounted for half of the evaluation criteria. The engagement provides a platform for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to expand their portfolio in publicly funded health sector projects, particularly those with expertise in vehicle conversion and reconditioning services. Additionally, the open procurement method allows accessible competition for businesses complying with the financial and insurance prerequisites as outlined in the contract's selection criteria. Successful engagement can lead to further opportunities in related sectors, as well as establishing valuable partnerships with major health organisations like NHS National Services Scotland.
