Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for "Outpatient Network Respiratory Medicine" was initiated by The Queen Elizabeth Hospital King's Lynn NHS Foundation Trust, located at Gayton Road, King's Lynn. This public procurement falls under the medical hospital services category, focusing on the insourcing of respiratory medicine consultants. The contract process, originally intended from 8th August 2025 to 31st March 2026, valued at £69,693, was ultimately abandoned as per the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) regulations. It is important to note that the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this tender. Originally, the process was conducted without a prior call for competition under a limited procurement method.

This tender presented potential growth opportunities for businesses specialised in medical and healthcare services, particularly those with the capability to provide efficient respiratory medicine support. Companies such as OUTPATIENT NETWORK LIMITED, which participated as a supplier in the previous stages, would likely benefit from such opportunities in similar future procurements. Businesses with strong service delivery capabilities and cost-effective solutions, particularly small to medium enterprises, would have been well-suited to compete for similar tenders due to the emphasis on service fees, provision timescales, and the limited competitive selection environment.
