Summary of the contracting process

Aneurin Bevan University Health Board procured outsourced clinical endoscopy and bowel screening services, classified as health services (CPV 85100000). The requirement covers two service areas. Lot 1 concerned Bowel Screening Wales-accredited and Joint Advisory Group on Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (JAG)-certified bowel-screening colonoscopists, primarily at Ysbyty Ystrad Fawr, with potential activity at Royal Gwent Hospital in Newport. Lot 2 concerned JAG-accredited endoscopists able to perform a range of procedures, including colonoscopy, across three Health Board sites. The recorded locations are Ysbyty Ystrad Fawr, Royal Gwent Hospital, Abergavenny, Newport and Caerphilly. Aneurin Bevan University Health Board is the buying organisation, with NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services acting as the central purchasing body for the procurement. The selected supplier is ID Medical Group Limited, based in Milton Keynes.

This procurement has been awarded following a mini-competition under the All Wales framework for insourcing and outsourcing clinical, surgical and diagnostic services, using a selective restricted procedure. ID Medical Group Limited was selected for both lots. The Lot 1 contract is valued at £632,783 and was signed on 9 March 2026. The Lot 2 contract is valued at £1,365,001 and was also signed on 9 March 2026; its contract period runs from 15 April 2026 to 31 March 2028. Each lot received 10 electronic bids, with no bids from small or medium-sized enterprises. Evaluation weighted social value at 15% and price at 85% for both lots. The procurement is complete, and the Lot 2 contract was subsequently amended to change the contracting authority from NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services to Aneurin Bevan University Health Board.

This outcome identifies a substantial, specialist requirement for providers able to supply endoscopy and bowel-screening clinical capacity to Aneurin Bevan University Health Board. A credible future competitor would need Bowel Screening Wales accreditation for screening colonoscopists and JAG certification or accreditation for endoscopists, including clinicians competent in colonoscopy and a broader range of endoscopic procedures. The work also calls for a provider capable of deploying appropriately qualified clinical teams across multiple hospital sites in Newport, Caerphilly and Abergavenny, and of delivering an insourced service within NHS operational settings. The competition attracted 10 electronic bids for each lot, all recorded as non-SME bids, indicating a field dominated by larger providers. Suppliers should also be able to demonstrate strong social-value commitments alongside competitive pricing when this buyer next tests the requirement.
