Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the contract "QHM-2025-9449 Castlegate Pharmacy 24 Hr ECG" was conducted by NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board, located in Sunderland, United Kingdom (Region: UKC). The procurement falls within the "Cardiology services" industry category. This tender went through an award stage using a limited procurement method, specifically the Direct Award Process C under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, with a contract start date of 1st April 2025 and an end date of 31st March 2026. This process does not require publication of a call for competition. The formal award was documented on 13th October 2025 following the necessary procedural steps, including a standstill period that concluded after 9 working days post-8th October 2025.

This tender represents a prospect for businesses in the cardiology services sector, catering specifically to entities capable of delivering high-quality 24-hour ECG services. Firms with proven expertise and existing service infrastructure, especially those with a history of public healthcare service delivery in the UK, would be well-placed to participate. The procurement process, given its limited method type, typically favours those with direct experience under similar contractual frameworks and those meeting the criteria set by the Provider Selection Regime. Engaging businesses can expect opportunities primarily driven by service performance and quality, rather than pre-determined contract values, as the awarded contract is based on activity levels rather than a guaranteed financial commitment.
