Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the "Palliative Care in Partnership" project led by the Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, focusing on health services in East Cheshire. The contract, valued at £372,442, covers the provision of community-based palliative care services from 1st April 2025 to 30th September 2025. This tender falls under the services category and the procurement method used was a direct award through the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, bypassing the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The main procurement category is services, and the procurement stage is now in the Award phase after its recent update on 5th June 2025.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specializing in healthcare services, particularly those experienced in delivering palliative care. Organisations like hospices or large healthcare providers can find opportunities to expand their service offerings within the community framework established by such direct awards. Companies capable of meeting immediate clinical needs and operating within the NHS framework, such as the East Cheshire Hospice, which secured the current contract, are optimally positioned to benefit from similar procurement opportunities. Additionally, the option for a six-month contract extension provides further avenues for sustained collaboration and service provision.
