Summary of the contracting process

NHS England, in collaboration with NHS Arden and Greater East Midlands CSU, undertook a competitive procurement process for the "Provision of Amyloidosis Networked Model of Care". This procurement aimed to establish four regional centres across England to provide specialised care for Amyloidosis, a rare condition caused by the accumulation of amyloid proteins. With a main procurement category in health and social work services, worth £5,040,000 in total, the procurement resulted in the award for two lots: University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust for the Midlands, and The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust for the North West. The formal contract award was completed on 25 February 2025, and the services are set to commence in May 2025, with a contract spanning five years and an option to extend for another two years.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for healthcare providers specialising in rare diseases, particularly those with capability in networked healthcare delivery. Companies with expertise in health services that can manage a regional centre and deliver integrated care across networks are well-suited to participate. These opportunities can lead to significant contributions in reducing health inequalities and expanding access to medical services, thereby enhancing business growth in specialised healthcare sectors. Providers able to demonstrate quality, integration, collaboration, and value in service delivery will have a competitive edge, with awards determined by a comprehensive evaluation process focusing on these criteria.
