Summary of the contracting process

The MID CHESHIRE HOSPITALS NHS FOUNDATION TRUST has initiated an intention to award notice under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) for dermatology services, with regulations outlined in the Health Care Services 2023 framework. This procurement process pertains to health services, specifically a consultant-led dermatology service for East Cheshire patients, including outpatient clinics and minor operations. Delivered regionally in UKD62, this award follows a limited procurement method without prior publication. The procurement stage is complete as of 18th March 2026, marking the commencement of a standstill period, with provider representations due by 30th March 2026.

This tender presents growth opportunities for healthcare service providers, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of offering comprehensive dermatology services with healthcare and administrative support. Dermwise Limited, the awarded supplier based in Manchester, exemplifies businesses suited for such contracts. Considering the procurement falls outside the usual directive scope, businesses can leverage bespoke services within this specialised healthcare category. The procurement method facilitates direct awarding, potentially beneficial for firms adept at niche healthcare offerings without extensive prior competitive procedures.
