This procurement falls within the medical specialist services industry category and primarily concerns integrated diabetes services.

The contract is valued at £147,397, starts on 1st April 2025, and concludes on 31st March 2026. No provisions of The Procurement Act 2023 apply here, as confirmed by a recent amendment.

The awarded contract for integrated diabetes services presents substantial opportunities for businesses, particularly those already established in healthcare service provision.
