This falls under the Provider Selection Regime Wales (PSR Wales) and is exempt from the Public Contracts Regulations/Procurement Act 2023. The award, utilizing NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership's Framework Agreement, is part of a mini competition aiming to provide an insourced solution to reduce theatre waiting lists across varied specialities like Ophthalmology, ENT, and Urology. The estimated contract value is GBP 3,748,839 excluding VAT, set to begin February 2026 and conclude on 31 March 2027, in the UK region of UKL14. Key dates include the start of the standstill period on 15 January 2026, with the final decision expected by 26 January 2026.

This contract presents significant opportunities for growth within the healthcare industry, specifically for businesses that can provide comprehensive theatre teams capable of supporting a wide range of medical specialities. Large-scale suppliers with the capacity for rapid and flexible deployment across multiple locations may find this particularly advantageous. The tender process was conducted without prior publication, suggesting a need for ready-to-act businesses that can capitalise on established frameworks and relationships within NHS procurement structures. Businesses experienced in delivering health services, particularly in clinical, surgical, and diagnostic procedures with a focus on reducing waiting lists, are well-suited to benefit from this opportunity.
