About

North East Ambulance Service awarded a contract to North East and North Cumbria ICB for a Patient Transport Service (PTS) supplementary contract providing dedicated discharge vehicles for Darlington, DDES, and North Durham Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs).

The contract, valued at £1,050,000, was procured under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (PCR 2015) via a Request for Quotation (RFQ) process.

The service was under review in 2019/20, with commissioners seeking to realign and reduce funding for combined Discharge and DUCT services from 2020/21, considering combined proposals of £1.5m and £1.25m that were not implemented due to Covid.
