Description

South Central Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust (SCAS) is tendering for A&E Private Ambulance Services. SCAS has used Private Ambulance Services for over 10 years to supplement its internal capacity. Following a strategic review of existing contracts, SCAS is planning to replace existing contracts, purchased under a dynamic purchasing system with longer term contracts to provide increased certainty and stability of private service provision. Services will be required 24 hours per day, 365 days per year including all public holidays. The procurement activity is expected to commence in December 2022, with new contracts to be operational in the period June 2023 – December 2023. Existing contracts will be extended to support a phased transition to the new service.
