Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the Berkshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, which has recently confirmed the contract award for the "Broomwell ECG Interpretation" service under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The procurement falls under the health services industry category, specifically focusing on providing successful ECG interpretation services across designated NHS sites. The contract, valued at £35,873.25 (excluding VAT), is set to run from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2027. The process was conducted through a direct award (limited procurement method) without prior publication of a call for competition, as it was deemed outside the scope of standard directives. The most significant dates to note include the confirmation of the contract award on 5th January 2026.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses in the health service sector, particularly those specialising in ECG interpretation or related technology, to explore future collaborations or subcontracting possibilities. Companies that excel in quality service delivery, technological integration, and innovation could find significant prospects for growth. Smaller enterprises (SMEs) with a keen interest in becoming part of NHS service delivery chains could benefit from understanding the procurement dynamics associated with direct awards under the Provider Selection Regime, as highlighted by this example involving Broomwell Healthwatch Limited, the contracted supplier.
