The procurement process for the provision of outsourced cardiac MRI scanning clinical services is being undertaken by East Kent Hospitals University NHS Foundation Trust, represented by 2gether Support Solutions. This process, classified under the health services industry category, is in the award stage as of November 2024. Located in Canterbury, the procurement is focused on outsourced cardiac MRI scanning for approximately 10 patients per week to help reduce the Trust's DM01 waiting list. Notably, this is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intention to award notice, bypassing the traditional competitive tender process. Key dates include the representation deadline on 3rd December 2024 during the standstill period, which began upon the publication of the notice.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for qualified health service providers with experience in cardiac care. Businesses that specialise in high-quality, innovative health solutions and can demonstrate integrated, collaborative approaches will be well-suited to compete. The contract value is £380,000, and Circle Health Group Ltd has been identified as the most suitable provider. This procurement method allows East Kent Hospitals University NHS Foundation Trust to select providers based on comprehensive criteria, ensuring that small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with relevant expertise can also express interest and potentially secure future opportunities under similar PSR procurements.
