Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Shared Business Services is seeking to award a contract for the Community Anticoagulation Service in Bury, focusing on health services. The procurement process involved a direct award to the incumbent provider, Intrahealth Limited, due to the need for continuity of high-quality services during the ongoing impact of the COVID pandemic. The contract, valued at £464,000, has been awarded for a period starting from 1st June 2021 until 31st May 2022. The tender process concluded on 25th March 2021, indicating that this was a response to immediate local healthcare needs in the North West region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) within the healthcare sector, particularly those experienced in community health services and patient management. Businesses specialising in anticoagulation monitoring, medication management, or those able to provide innovative solutions that reduce the need for physical appointments are well positioned to compete. With the potential for future novation of the contract to a new lead provider, companies prepared to demonstrate integration capabilities and adaptability will find substantial avenues for growth in this evolving service landscape.
