When this comes round again

Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust publishes Health & Social Care work continuously — 15 notices, roughly one every 82 days. This is a stream to watch, not a cycle to wait for.

35% of Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust’s awards go to a supplier it has used before.

Which is the argument for getting on the list rather than winning this one. The incumbent is rarely the last winner — it is the roster. See the retention odds by category →
