Summary of the contracting process

The intention to award notice under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) has been issued for a call-off contract concerning biochemistry and haematology tests. This procurement, initiated by Integrated Laboratory Solutions LLP, intends to award a contract to an existing provider, the Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust, with no changes to the current contracting terms. Located at Airedale General Hospital, Keighley, the procurement falls under the health industry category, specifically pathology services. The initial contract period spans from 25 February 2026 to 24 February 2027, with potential extensions of up to two twelve-month periods. The procurement method employed is 'limited', meaning no public competition was held, highlighting that the award procedure opted for does not require prior publication. Representations regarding this intention to award must be submitted by 24 February 2026, marking the end of the standstill period.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for growth for businesses specialising in pathology services, particularly those with an established reputation and infrastructure to provide consistent healthcare services. Companies with expertise in delivering specialised biochemistry and haematology tests efficiently would be well-suited to capitalise on this tender. Although the contract is to be directly awarded to an existing provider due to the satisfactory service level and standard delivery, it reinforces the importance of maintaining high-quality service levels and value within the healthcare sector. Despite the absence of competition, businesses within this industry can align their service capabilities to meet or exceed the standards set by the incumbent provider, ensuring preparedness for future opportunities that might arise when such direct awards undergo review or require renewal. The contract value is estimated at £60,000, providing a predictable revenue stream based on activity levels and extending potential longevity through the outlined additional periods.
