Supplier Approved onto £1bn NHS LPP Patient Transport DPS

Opportunity

The NHS London Procurement Partnership (LPP) operates a Dynamic Purchasing System for Non Emergency Patient Transport and Other Transport Services on behalf of NHS trusts and other public sector bodies across London and beyond. The DPS has an advertised overall framework value of up to £1bn and is designed to give NHS buyers access to a pre approved pool of transport providers who can deliver safe, reliable, and compliant patient transport services. Gaining approved supplier status on this DPS opens the door for providers to compete for individual call off contracts as they are issued through further competitions.

Bid Requirement

The DPS application required the supplier to demonstrate regulatory compliance, operational capability, fleet management standards, safeguarding protocols, and experience delivering patient transport or similar services within healthcare or public sector settings. The submission needed to evidence quality management, insurance coverage, driver training, accessibility provisions, and alignment with NHS values and patient safety expectations.
