Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for "Support for Inpatients at Clockview Hospital" has been initiated by the NHS Cheshire and Merseyside Integrated Care Board. This tender falls under the health services industry category, specifically targeting services to be provided in Sefton, UK (region UKD73). The procurement stage has progressed to the award phase with the contract set to commence on the 1st of April 2026 and conclude on the 31st of March 2027. The contract, valued at £39,987 annually, was awarded using a limited procurement method under the Provider Selection Regime, thus bypassing a competitive call for competition. Key dates include the approval decision on 12th January 2026 and an active awards status confirmed as of 30th April 2026.

This tender presents growth opportunities for businesses that specialise in health services, particularly those with a focus on providing inpatient support. Companies that are capable of delivering quality, innovation, and integration in healthcare are well-suited to compete. The criteria emphasising social value, access improvement, collaboration, and service sustainability suggest that businesses with a strong track record in these areas will be competitive. As the contract was directly awarded to an existing provider, organisations aiming to enter similar markets should align their strategic capabilities with these criteria to stay relevant for future opportunities.
