Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Queen Elizabeth Hospital King's Lynn NHS Foundation Trust is planning to award a contract for the provision of Day Therapy services, including intravenous infusions and blood transfusions, at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital. This procurement is classified under the Hospital Services (CPV: 85111000) and falls within the services category. The procurement method is limited, with no prior publication of a call for competition, due to it being a repetition of existing services. The contracting process is currently at the award stage, with a standstill period starting post-publication. Potential representations by providers must be submitted by 23 April 2026. The intended supplier, Arthur Rank Hospice Charity, is poised to deliver the services across the UKH16 region for a three-year term.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses operating within the healthcare sector, especially those specialising in hospital and day therapy services. The limited procurement method implies that businesses with established relationships or experience in similar services could be advantageous. Potential bidders could explore partnerships or sub-contracting opportunities with Arthur Rank Hospice Charity, the chosen supplier, or seek future engagements under similar procurement regimes. Enterprises that are adept at efficiently providing clinical and support services, with a focus on intravenous and blood transfusion therapies, stand to benefit from engaging in such public sector contracts for sustained business growth.
