Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust procured outsourced elective orthopaedic services focused on hand and upper-limb care. The requirement is for health services delivered for the Trust in Worcester, Worcestershire. The work sits within the Trust’s planned orthopaedic treatment rather than a purchase of medical equipment or construction. The selected provider is The Medical & Diagnostic Care Group Limited. The requirement was handled as a call-off from a framework agreement, so it reflects the Trust’s use of an existing supplier arrangement for this specialist clinical service.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to The Medical & Diagnostic Care Group Limited. The award date was 28 September 2026. The awarded contract value is £598,938. The contract period runs from 7 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. The estimated procurement value was also £598,938. The route was a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The response deadline was 3 August 2026. The available details describe the requirement as one service package; no separate lots are identified. Small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises were marked as unsuitable. No award evaluation criteria are stated in the published process information.

This award shows demand from Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust for outsourced elective orthopaedic care specifically covering hand and upper-limb treatment. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need the clinical capability and operational capacity to deliver this specialist patient service for an acute NHS trust, alongside the ability to work through a framework call-off route. The selected provider was a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that this contract was delivered by an SME, although the procurement was marked unsuitable for SMEs. Suppliers should therefore assess the framework access and delivery requirements carefully before treating the award as evidence of an accessible opportunity. The commercial signal is focused on a defined, short-term service package rather than broad orthopaedic outsourcing.
