Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Insourcing of Cataracts Procedures" is being carried out by the NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership - Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust on behalf of Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board. This contract falls under the health services industry category, specifically targeting the provision of cataract procedures. The procurement process has reached the award stage with an amendment clarifying the contract as insourcing rather than outsourcing, effective from 1st December 2025 to 31st March 2026. The services will be provided across North Wales, including locations within the Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board area. This tender is being awarded through a limited procurement method under the Health Services (Provider Selection Regime) (Wales) Regulations 2025, bypassing the need for prior publication of a call for competition.

This tender presents a robust opportunity for businesses catering to the health services sector to tap into the growing demand for cataract procedures insourcing. ID Medical Group Limited has been proposed as the provider, highlighting business growth potential for organisations with expertise in delivering seamless, complex medical procedures within tight deadlines. The focus is on maintaining service continuity and minimising patient disruption. Hence, businesses specialising in healthcare services, particularly in the area of cataract treatment, are better suited to engage competitively in such procurement processes to expand their market presence and expertise, particularly when existing providers are sought for continuity and efficiency.
