## Summary

West Midlands Ambulance Service has concluded the procurement process for "Taxi Services" classified under the CPV code 60120000, which involves non-emergency patient transport services throughout several UK regions, including UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, UKI, UKJ, and UKK. Primarily aimed at meeting the non-emergency transport needs of patients requiring clinical attention, the procurement was conducted through a limited procedure, bypassing the OJEU code, and did not require prior publication of a call for competition. The tender process saw 28 bids with the procurement stage tagged as both "award" and "contract," reflecting its current completion status.

This procurement opportunity underscores the potential for growth in the taxi industry, particularly for SMEs focused on patient transport services. The successful establishment of a DPS Framework for PTS Taxis Services through 28 contracted suppliers including A Star Taxi Crewe, Argyle Taxis, and Expedition Mini Coaches, among others, opens avenues for business expansion within regional or local service provision in the health sector. Small-to-medium enterprises offering taxi services across the listed UK regions could leverage this framework to enhance their operational scope and secure steady business from public sector clients in healthcare transport.

## Notice

WMAS also provide non-emergency patient transport services across parts of the region for patients that require non-emergency transport to and from hospital and who are unable to travel unaided because of their medical condition or clinical need. WMAS complete approximately 700,000 non-emergency patient journeys each year. Advert Reference - 2022/S 686 - 732732
