Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is undertaking an early engagement process to explore off-site surgical and medical capacity solutions. This initiative is classified under health and social work services within the UK public procurement framework, specifically located in Chester, North West England. The engagement aims to gather insights from suppliers on their capabilities to deliver medical and surgical services outside traditional NHS facilities. The deadline for respondents to express their interest is 30th March 2018, with the procurement currently in the planning stage.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for healthcare providers, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in medical and surgical outsourcing. Businesses that can demonstrate proficiency in providing healthcare services outside NHS settings are well-placed to compete. As the NHS seeks innovative solutions to extend its service capacity, suitable suppliers may find this an excellent chance to forge new partnerships and expand their operational reach within the healthcare sector.
