Summary of the contracting process

The contracting process for the "Insourcing Activity ENT" was conducted by the Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust, focusing on health services in the UKD3 region. The process involved a limited procurement method, specifically an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, as it continued the service from the current provider under PSR regulations. The procurement, which was completed, was classified under the CPV code 85100000 for health services. Key details include the contract award to Fortify Clinic Limited, with the contract signed on 1st May 2025. The status of the process is marked as complete, with the award being active.

This tender offers significant opportunities for growth, especially for small to medium enterprises (SMEs) involved in the health services sector, particularly those with expertise in ENT services. Given the nature of the procurement, businesses that already have a working relationship with NHS entities or those capable of offering specialised health services could have an advantageous position. Despite the procurement not being open to public tendering, such awards can lead to more substantial contracts in the future through demonstrated excellence and reliability in service delivery. The awarded contract to Fortify Clinic Limited highlights the potential for similar businesses to secure vital service contracts with major health organisations like the Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust.
