Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust involves the acquisition of a Social Value Strategic Advisor for the Healthier Futures programme, with key activities focusing on enhancing social value in hospital development projects. This process falls under the services industry category and covers multiple regions across the UK. The contract runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2029, with a possible extension until 2032. The procurement followed a selective method termed a 'Competitive Flexible Procedure', having completed its tender stage with a total gross value of £194,400, awarded to Akerlof Limited. This contract is aligned with NHS sustainability goals and legal frameworks, ensuring compliance with the Social Value Act.

This tender presents significant growth potential for businesses specializing in social value consultation, particularly those with expertise in environmental services and strategic advisory roles within the healthcare sector. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as well as firms capable of aligning with national and local priorities, are ideally positioned to benefit. Establishing a foothold in this sector can promote business scale and reputation, given the expansive reach across various UK regions and the critical nature of integrating social value in healthcare infrastructure. The process's competitive but flexible nature allows businesses to demonstrate their core competencies, adapting to detailed PQQ and tender requirements.
