## Summary

NHS Highland, located in Inverness, UK, has awarded a contract for "HH032-24-TW20 Patient & Staff Air Travel" services. This procurement pertains to the health industry category, focusing on flights for patients and staff from various locations in Argyll & Bute, including Islay, Tiree, and Campbeltown. The procurement process utilised a limited procurement method without prior publication due to Loganair Limited being the sole provider of these specific flight routes. The procurement stage is complete, with the contract signed on 29th October 2024 for a value of £547,122. Delivery is set to take place within the UKM6 region.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities within the aviation and transport sectors, especially for large-scale service providers. Although the contract has been awarded directly to Loganair Limited due to the absence of competition, similar tenders could appeal to businesses capable of offering specialised, efficient, and cost-effective transport solutions in remote regions. Companies with robust service delivery and competitive pricing in the healthcare logistical support area would be well-suited to compete in future related procurements. Engaging in such contracts could solidify market presence and enhance business portfolios in the public sector service domain.

### Procurement Information

Loganair is currently the only provider of flights on these routes.
