Summary of the contracting process

The NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board has completed the procurement process for the "North Tyneside & Northumberland Acute Respiratory Infection Hubs Winter 25/26". This contract falls under the category of miscellaneous health services and covers locations within Northumberland, specifically Bedlington, Guidepost, Seaton Park, and The Gables Medical Groups. Awarded under the Health Care Services Provider Selection Regime 2023, the procurement method used was limited, without prior publication of a call for competition, due to urgent circumstances. The service period is anticipated to run from 17th November 2025 to 31st March 2026, with the contract having been signed on 17th November 2025.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for health service providers specialising in acute respiratory care, particularly those able to quickly mobilise and manage services in the Northumberland area. Given the procurement method and the urgent nature of the award, businesses already established within the region or those with the capacity to scale rapidly would be well-positioned to deliver such services effectively. Additionally, organisations like the Wansbeck Primary Care Network, which received an active contract valued at £22,917.68, exemplify the type of business likely to succeed in this environment, particularly if they can provide cost-effective and high-quality service solutions where alternatives are limited.
