Summary of the contracting process

The Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has completed the procurement stage of its tender for the 'Wig Service'. This tender process falls under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR), specific to Health Care Services regulations and not the general Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The procurement caters to goods within the wigs industry, specifically for Norwich's UKH15 region, and involves an estimated budget of £50,000. The competitive procedure used for this procurement included negotiations, and although an award has been indicated, the standstill period post-publication is in place as of October 2025.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses within the healthcare services sector, focusing particularly on those supplying patient wigs and related services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with experience or capacity in this sector, such as hairpiece providers or bespoke wig makers, are well-positioned to compete. With the main criteria for awarding based primarily on price, businesses offering competitive pricing and quality service will stand a strong chance of securing contracts under this framework agreement, provided they are already part of the relevant framework.
