Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, has completed the award stage of a public procurement process for regional outsourcing of cataracts procedures. The procurement falls under the Health Services (Provider Selection Regime) (Wales) Regulations 2025 and results from a framework agreement with competition. The awarded contract was announced on 15th August 2025, with services scheduled from 5th August 2025 to 31st March 2026. The project is situated in South East Wales, covering regions such as UKL16, UKL15, UKL21, and UKL22, and classified under ophthalmologist services. St Joseph's were removed due to an incomplete tender submission, and the successful supplier, NEW MEDICAL SYSTEMS LIMITED, is set to provide these services as part of an active contract worth £40,000,000 GBP.

This procurement presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in medical services, particularly those capable of delivering reliable and efficient ophthalmology services. Ideal candidates for participation included large medical service providers like NEW MEDICAL SYSTEMS LIMITED, capable of handling technical requirements and offering competitive commercial value coupled with social value benefits. The procurement method, conducted without prior publication of a call for competition, highlights the importance of framework agreements and the need for potential suppliers to align with NHS Wales’ standards and timelines. This tender is particularly lucrative for businesses designed to accommodate the healthcare sector’s demands, with a focus on quality, cost, and social impact as evaluated in the bidding process.
