Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process undertaken by Gateshead Health NHS Foundation Trust for a "Pelvic Floor SLA - NuTH" service has concluded. This contract award falls under the services category specifically relating to services provided by nurses, with the classification code 85141200. The procurement was carried out using a limited method due to it being outside the typical regulatory scope, with a direct award to Newcastle Upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. The contract covers services from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2027 and carries a total value of £29,000. The award decision was made by Fiona McClintock, Service Line Manager, Surgical Business Unit, with no conflicts of interest noted. The award status is active as of the signing date, 16th October 2025, and the services will be provided within the UK.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in providing healthcare services, particularly those in niche medical service areas like pelvic floor collaborations. While the procurement method was limited and direct, companies capable of providing unique healthcare services could leverage their unique offerings to pursue similar opportunities. Although this contract was directly awarded due to the lack of viable alternatives, businesses of substantial scale that specialise in collaborative healthcare provision could consider monitoring such procurement for future opportunities to showcase their potential in direct award processes or niche markets where few competitors exist.
