## About this tender

This notice is placed as a Prior Information Notice (PIN) to inform the market of NHS Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire (BNSSG) Integrated Care Board's (the Commissioner), intention to recommission Non-Emergency Patient Transport Services.

The Commissioner would like to communicate a planned market engagement event and request expressions of interest for this.

The service will provide transport for eligible BNSSG patients. Full details on eligibility are provided in section II.2.4 below.

The geographical scope of this contract includes the transport of all BNSSG patients to points of NHS care.

Planned Transport specifically covers pre-booked journeys to and from healthcare booked prior to 17:00 the day before transport.
