Summary of the contracting process

The contract for the "Riverside Medical Practice - Enhanced Services Contract" was awarded by the NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board, focusing on health services specifically in spirometry. This procurement falls under the services category with a CPV code of 85100000, located in the UKC region. The contract was awarded through a Direct Award Process under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) regulations 2023, circumventing the traditional procurement approach as defined by the Procurement Act 2023 and Procurement Regulations 2024. The procurement stage is complete, with contract dates from 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2026, although services have been delivered on an implied contract since before the stated start date.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses operating within the healthcare services sector, particularly those specialising in spirometry and other enhanced medical services. Although the contract was executed through a direct award to Riverside Medical Practice, indicating there was no competition, similar contracts may follow a more competitive procurement method in the future. Businesses with expertise in providing comprehensive health services or those already participating in NHS frameworks could find growth opportunities here. Additionally, organisations should consider positioning themselves for subsequent procurements that may become available beyond the scope of the current contract.
