Summary of the contracting process

Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust has completed the awarding process for the provision of respiratory outpatient clinic services under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. This urgent award addresses significant staff shortages affecting the delivery of timely respiratory services, particularly during peak winter periods. The contract started on 12 January 2026 and runs until 31 March 2026, with the possibility to extend for an additional three months. The total estimated value of the contract is £500,000, and it has been awarded to DMC Healthcare Limited. The procurement took place without prior publication of a call for competition, leveraging the PSR Urgent Award due to immediate service requirements.

This contract presents considerable growth opportunities for healthcare providers specialising in respiratory and outpatient care services. Businesses adept at delivering specialised health services under constrained timelines and with high operational capacity are well-suited to compete for similar future opportunities. DMC Healthcare Limited, an SME positioned in London, exemplifies the potential for smaller enterprises to break into significant public sector contracts, as they furnish the expertise critical to safeguarding patient health in critical circumstances. Firms equipped with healthcare services personnel can enhance their market presence through similar urgent and essential service provisions.
