Summary of the contracting process

The Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has completed a procurement process for the NHSE funded National Programmes of Work, specifically focusing on strategic advice and opinion related to the V&S Programme. This tender, categorised under business and management consultancy services, was executed through a limited competition procurement method. Integral Health Solutions, based in Warrington, has been awarded the contract, which commenced on 17th September 2025 and will run until 15th September 2026. With a gross contract value of £132,000, this process falls below the threshold requiring a more extensive competitive tender. The procurement process officially concluded on 16th September 2025 with the contract being signed, and now rests in the awarding stage, showcasing the trust's efficient approach in managing its healthcare-related strategic initiatives.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in consultancy services, especially those with a focus on strategic advice within the healthcare sector. Companies like Integral Health Solutions, which already demonstrated capability in this field, are well positioned. Large-scale consultancy firms with experience in government healthcare programs could leverage such contracts to expand their footprint and portfolio of public sector projects. The procurement reflects a strategic alignment with public sector clients and can help foster long-term business relationships with central government entities like the NHS Foundation Trust, enhancing credibility and market positioning amidst growing demands for specialised consultancy services in the public health domain.
