UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, managed by the Blackpool Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, involves the outsourcing of EEG reporting services. This contract, titled "BTH Outsourcing - EEG reporting - Lekwa Diagnostics," falls under the medical imaging services category and is located in the United Kingdom, specifically in the region of Blackpool. The current stage of this procurement is the award phase, having been completed with Lekwa Diagnostics Limited. The contract was signed on 18th September 2025 and will be active from 1st October 2025 until 30th September 2027. The procurement method employed was direct, under a "below threshold" classification, meaning it was conducted without competition, highlighting the specialised nature of this service.

This tender creates significant opportunities for growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in medical imaging services and diagnostics. Companies looking to expand their portfolio in providing healthcare solutions to public hospitals may find this contract highly beneficial. The absence of a competitive process indicates that organisations with niche capabilities in medical diagnostics are favoured and can leverage such opportunities to build exclusive partnerships with healthcare providers like the NHS Foundation Trust. Lekwa Diagnostics Limited, an SME, showcases how businesses of similar scale can compete effectively in such procurement processes, especially when a direct procurement route is adopted.
