Summary of the contracting process

The University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust has completed a procurement process under the title "Outsourced Activity 2026 - 85100000," which addresses the need to outsource surgical services due to limited NHS capacity. This contract, classified under the health services category (CPV code 85100000), involves providing additional surgical capacity for long-waiting patients by using an Independent Sector Provider. The procurement process was conducted using a PSR Direct Award to the most suitable provider, and the awarded supplier is Modality LLP. The contract, valued at £2,000,000, commenced on 12th June 2026 and will end on 31st March 2027. The location for the procurement activity is based in Wolverhampton, West Midlands, England, with the postal code WV1 4SB.

This opportunity offers significant potential for business growth by highlighting the demand for surgical outsourcing solutions, which can be beneficial for health service providers with the capability to operate privately. This contract is especially suitable for large-scale organisations like Modality LLP that can handle the volume and requirements of NHS-related surgeries. The direct award method presents an opportunity for firms that have established practising privileges and can guarantee service continuity, essential for reducing patient wait times and avoiding repeated outpatient assessments and diagnostics.

Notice Title

Outsourced Activity 2026 - 85100000

Notice Description

The activity relates to carrying our surgery for long waiter patients on the waiting lists of specific surgeons in the hospital. There is insuffiicient capacity in existing NHS core hours to carry out the surgery for these patients and so we are seeking additional capacity from outside of the NHS. The activity in scope of the outsourcing relates to specific surgoens who have practising privileges to operate privately at this particular Independent Sector Provider. The advantages of ensuring the continuity of the surgeon is that the patient will not require to be reviewed as an outpatient and will not require diagnostic tests to be repeated - this saves both time and money, and is less demanding on the patient in terms of taking time out to attend repeat additional and avoidable outpatient attendances - which in some cases can also involve radiological diagnostic investigations.
