What is the best way to concatenate packed numeric data?

There are lots of options but one way to produce a byte string from (semi) arbitrary values is to use the struct module. It uses a format string to define the data format and lengths and then substitutes in the values it is given to 'pack'.

PS.
Its a bit like a PICT string in COBOL if your that kind
of mainframer!

If that doesn't help then we will need a bit more detail of the kind of thing you want. Even a made up example with just a couple of fields...
