Summary of the contracting process

Integrated Laboratory Solutions LLP is procuring a contract for biochemistry diagnostic tests as part of a call-off order under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR). The contract focuses on pathology services and covers the period from 21 February 2026 to 20 February 2027, with a potential extension of 12 months. The authority intends to award this to an existing supplier, indicating that the service is to be delivered at Airedale General Hospital, Keighley in the region UKE41. The procurement method chosen is a direct award, justified by the satisfactory performance and continuity of the current provider, the Northern Care Alliance NHS FT. Representations from providers need to be submitted by 20 February 2026, following the standstill period initiated by this notice.

This tender provides opportunities primarily for businesses already engaged or capable of engaging in pathology and biochemistry services without necessitating a competitive bidding process. Companies with established relationships and credentials in delivering quality health services, ensuring continuity, integration, and value will find this procurement advantageous. As the procedure follows a direct award process due to the fulfilment of key PSR criteria such as quality and access, businesses in the health sector already working closely with organisations like Integrated Laboratory Solutions LLP or Northern Care Alliance NHS FT could leverage this to secure service contracts that align with existing capabilities and business strategies. This could potentially lead to stable business growth within the health services industry due to extended contract periods.
