Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Cheshire and Merseyside Integrated Care Board has issued a contract modification notice under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. This contract concerns the delivery of Acute Secondary Care Services and Community Services across Cheshire and Merseyside, specifically targeting health services as the primary procurement category. The contract, worth £370,545,000 initially, began on 1st April 2026 and is set to conclude on 31st March 2027. The procurement process follows a Provider Selection Regime, bypassing the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. A significant update is a contract modification approved on 17th February 2026, expanding community and palliative care services with an additional £3,100,000, bringing the total contract value to £373,645,000. The services are being provided by Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, based in Cheshire East (region UKD62), and the contract is currently in the award stage.

This contract presents substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for large healthcare providers specialising in comprehensive health services, including acute care, community services, and palliative care. Given the scale of the contract and its specific focus on health services across a large geographic area, large-scale health service providers with existing infrastructure in similar domains are poised to benefit. Organisations with the capacity to offer integrated care solutions, enhance existing service delivery models, and effectively manage substantial healthcare operations will find this opportunity lucrative. The procurement encourages development in the sector, offering the potential for improved service coordination and resource utilisation, thus appealing to businesses seeking to expand their footprint in the healthcare sector.
