Summary of the contracting process

Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has awarded a contract modification under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 for the insourcing of non-obstetric ultrasound services. The contract, initially set to end on 31 March 2025, has been extended for an additional 12 months, now concluding on 31 March 2026. The value of the extended services is £437,239, reflecting the significant volume of activities and patient wait times that necessitated this extension. Atlas Diagnostics Limited, located in Salford, Manchester, remains the service provider. The deliverables are to be fulfilled at Sheffield Teaching Hospitals, specifically on Herries Road, Sheffield.

This contract extension provides ample opportunities for businesses specialising in medical imaging services. Entities like small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that offer technical quality at competitive prices would be well-suited to compete in similar future tenders. The procurement process was conducted without prior publication of a call for competition, focusing on pace of delivery (20%), price (50%), technical quality (20%), and social value (10%). This selection method ensures that awarded contracts deliver value for money while maintaining high service standards. Businesses that can demonstrate efficiency and quality in health services are ideal candidates for such tenders.
