Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Lancashire and South Cumbria Integrated Care Board (ICB) is in the process of awarding a contract for the provision of a Diagnostic Interpretation Service using Telehealth solutions. This contract falls under the health services category and is located in Preston, within the UKD4 region. The procurement is currently in the award stage, following the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) regulations rather than the Public Contracts Regulations. The intention is to award the contract directly to an existing provider, Broomwell Healthwatch Limited. The evaluation process has already considered key criteria including quality, innovation, and service sustainability, among others. Providers have until 18th March 2026 to make representations regarding this process, and the standstill period began after the award notice date on 6th March 2026.

This contract presents substantial opportunities for businesses focusing on telehealth technology and health services. Companies that specialise in diagnostic services and have innovative solutions or integration capabilities will be well-suited to compete or collaborate under similar procurement methods in future tenders. Given that the contract has been deemed to fall outside the scope of the directive, it encourages flexibility in procurement processes—beneficial for SMEs like Broomwell Healthwatch Limited, the current provider, who has been offered the contract based on performance and capability to meet service criteria. Businesses aiming to expand in the health sector could seek similar opportunities, especially those with expertise in local price-based service provision.
