## Summary

East Midlands Ambulance Service NHS Trust bought 13 Toyota Proace electric light vans to replace its existing internal logistics support fleet. This is a one-off purchase of standard and specialist vehicles, rather than a requirement for ambulance vehicles or a wider fleet service. The vehicles are for the Trust’s internal logistics operations and are to be delivered in Nottinghamshire. The procurement was made through the Government Commercial Agency’s RM6244 framework for standard and specialist vehicles, under its vehicle-purchase lot.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to TOYOTA (G.B.) PLC. The Trust used a direct award through the RM6244 framework, without publishing a call for competition; the stated rationale was that the supplies were quoted and purchased on a commodity market. Price was the award criterion. One bid was recorded, from an SME. The contract covers a one-off purchase of 13 vehicles, with a contract value of £219,558. It was signed on 23 September 2026. The award is recorded as active, and the contract is active.

For suppliers assessing this buyer’s future vehicle requirements, this award shows demand for electric light vans to support internal logistics, with vehicles replacing an existing fleet. A credible competitor would need to supply Toyota Proace electric vehicles, or demonstrate that its vehicle offer meets the Trust’s requirements for standard and specialist vehicles. The buyer used its established Government Commercial Agency framework and made a direct award, so access to the relevant framework route would be important to competing for a similar purchase. The recorded award followed a price-based evaluation and attracted one bid, indicating that price was the stated basis for selection. The requirement was a defined vehicle supply, not a broader fleet-management or vehicle-maintenance service.
