UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is the buying organisation for the procurement titled "Membership for Local Academic Health Science Centre." The contracting process is driven by the completion of direct procurement without competition, focusing on service delivery within the research services industry category. Located in Birmingham, UK, this procurement involves key players from the University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, which manages the BSOL Procurement Collaborative. The procurement stage is at the award phase, with the contract status active from 10 March 2025 to 9 March 2026. The value of the contract amounts to £69,500 (net) and was signed on 9 March 2025. The procurement identifies as a service category under CPV code 73110000.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses within the academic health science sector, particularly those with a focus on research services. The direct procurement method suggests that this process is below the threshold for competition, hence favouring specialised suppliers like the University Of Birmingham, the awarded supplier. Large-scale enterprises with a strong footing in research services are well-suited to successfully engage with or compete in such procurement processes, as the project entails ongoing collaboration at a local academic health science centre. The contractual engagement with a prestigious university signals a solid scope for stakeholder synergy and innovation potential within the regional healthcare research domain.
