Summary of the contracting process

The Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is overseeing a public procurement process for surgical insourcing services under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR). The contracting process involves an active contract modified under Health Care Services Regulations 2023, extending through 2026. The industry category specified is surgical hospital services, delivered within the region of UKH15. The procurement is in the award update stage, following a contract modification notice dated 30th April 2026, with the standstill period having commenced after an intent notice published on 18th March 2026. This direct award process applies without prior publication of a call for competition, and the contract value stands at £176,000 GBP.

This tender offers significant opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises specialising in health services, particularly surgical hospital services. As a direct award to Norwich and Norfolk Surgical Ltd, businesses in the healthcare sector can explore partnerships or subcontracting possibilities. The absence of the standard Public Contracts Regulations 2015 offers flexibility, enabling faster procurement engagements, and may be advantageous for businesses providing specialised surgical services. The region-specific focus on UKH15 further aligns opportunities for local businesses, enhancing regional collaboration and service provision. Businesses adept at meeting additional service requirements swiftly and efficiently are particularly well-suited to benefit from such procurement frameworks.
