Summary of the contracting process

The Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust intends to award a contract for the provision of fertility services under a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) notice. This process falls under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, Direct Award Process C, and is not governed by the Procurement Act 2023. The identified provider is East Riding Fertility Services Limited, located in Hull, East Yorkshire. This award notice initiates the standstill period with a deadline for representations by 10 April 2026. The contract spans from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027, with a potential three-month extension. The industry category is gynaecological hospital services, focusing on fertility, with an estimated contract value of £360,000, potentially reaching £450,000 if extended.

This contract presents significant business opportunities, particularly for those in the healthcare and fertility sectors, as it involves providing services in a specialised field with high demand. Businesses with expertise in health services, a track record of delivering innovative fertility solutions, and the capacity to maintain high service standards will find this opportunity beneficial. The procurement method—an award procedure without prior publication—favours organisations already equipped to meet the contractual obligations swiftly. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with a strategic focus on healthcare can leverage such contracts for growth by expanding their service delivery within the NHS framework and enhancing community healthcare offerings.
