Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process involves NHS England as the contracting authority for a project titled "(STA) NCCPM Ext (Oct 25 - March 26)", which focuses on providing scientific and technical advice and performance monitoring services for the NHS Breast Screening Programme. The procurement falls under the health services industry category and was primarily conducted at locations in London and Leeds, UK. Although the contract has been terminated as of 31 March 2026 due to completion, key dates include its initial signing on 11 December 2025. The procurement process was carried out via a direct award method due to the absence of competition for technical reasons, specifically indicating intellectual property and exclusive rights considerations with the supplier, Royal Surrey County Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.

This tender offered significant opportunities for business growth, especially for those specialising in technical consultancy and health services. Companies with expertise in scientific and technical advisory roles, as well as those equipped to handle performance monitoring in medical programs, were well-prepared to compete for this contract. Businesses capable of offering repeated services or possessing intellectual property pertinent to the NHS’s reporting and analytic frameworks found this an advantageous procurement. Such opportunities highlight potential for large-scale suppliers or collaboration with leading health authorities, fostering advancement in healthcare service provisions.
