The procurement stage has reached completion, with the award published on 27 June 2022, shortly after the award decision made on 9 June 2022.

With the contracts being made available to various public and private health sectors, there is a substantial potential for engaged suppliers looking to expand their market presence in the healthcare field, particularly in compliance with NHS standards.
