Summary of the contracting process

The Lincolnshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust has completed a procurement process titled "Nursing Agency Provision", classified under the industry category of Business services, specifically law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing, and security. This procurement process was carried out through a selective method as a call-off from a framework agreement via the NHS Workforce Alliance Clinical and Healthcare Staffing. The contract aims to provide nursing agency workers for vacant shifts across various sites and departments within the UK, with a total value of up to £999,000. The procurement stage has reached the award phase, with INTERACT MEDICAL LIMITED being the chosen supplier as of 4th August 2026. The contract period is set from 15th May 2026 to 14th May 2027, with services expected to be delivered primarily in Lincoln, United Kingdom.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses focused on staffing and recruitment services, especially those that can supply qualified nursing personnel to meet the healthcare demands outlined by the Lincolnshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust. Given the requirement for agency workers across a range of shifts, businesses that have an adaptable and extensive pool of healthcare professionals stand to benefit greatly. Moreover, this tender is particularly suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), encouraging participation from smaller firms with the capability to efficiently supply nursing staff. Collaboration with a major NHS Trust can provide a substantial growth avenue for suppliers specializing in healthcare workforce solutions.
