Summary of the contracting process

The recent procurement process conducted by the Warrington and Halton Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust focused on securing complementary therapies services. The contract, titled "Complementary therapies," includes services such as facials, massage, hot stone therapy, Indian Head Massage, mini-pedicures, reflexology, Reiki, and meditation. This procurement falls under the category of services within the healthcare sector and is pertinent to locations across the United Kingdom, specifically within regions UKC to UKK. The process was executed via direct procurement, below the threshold and without competition, marking its completion with an award on 15th July 2025. The subsequent contract commenced on 14th July 2026 and will last for one day. As part of a public authority's central government need, the procurement stage is classified as 'Award,' with the awarded contract value standing at £16,200 gross.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for companies specialising in wellness and complementary therapies, particularly those capable of offering services across a broad geographic area. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs), like the awarded supplier Jackie Gribben, who are adept in spa and massage services may find direct procurement processes advantageous due to the lack of necessity for competitive bidding. Businesses with the capability to deliver quality service promptly and efficiently to meet the NHS's specific needs will find this an ideal opportunity to expand their service footprint and engage with public health sectors. This procurement also highlights an opening for service providers to cultivate long-standing relationships with public organisations and potentially secure future contracts within the healthcare industry.
