Summary of the contracting process

The Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has recently progressed to the contract award stage for their "Dermatology Community Referral Service" under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. This contract, valued at approximately £120,000, focuses on providing outsourced community dermatology services and is set to commence at the end of October 2025, running until 31st March 2026. The procurement process was conducted through an open procedure, and the successful supplier, Healthshare Diagnostics Limited, will deliver services in the UKH15 region. All award decisions have been made in the absence of any declared conflicts of interest, ensuring transparency and adherence to the Provider Selection Regime's criteria.

SMEs that offer innovative solutions and possess expertise in dermatological care could significantly benefit, with the chance to establish themselves within the NHS supply chain framework. The selection process emphasises value, and experienced suppliers with solid service delivery backgrounds are positioned well to compete for such notices in the future. This contract aligns with strategic growth for patient care service providers looking to expand their presence in the public healthcare sector.
