Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS Cheshire and Merseyside Integrated Care Board has awarded a contract for the "Adult Hearing Loss Service" in Cheshire East, Vale Royal, and South Cheshire. The award process, concluded under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, does not fall under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The service focuses on health services and employs a "limited" procurement method, which involved a direct award without prior publication of a call for competition. The contract with The Outside Clinic Ltd commences on 1st April 2026 and concludes on 31st March 2027. It is structured as a tariff-based contract with no guaranteed activity, and the award emphasises patient choice and price as key criteria.

This contract offers opportunities for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those providing hearing-related solutions. The procurement process indicates that experienced providers, such as current service providers, may have an advantage, highlighting the significance of industry reputation and existing relationships with local health boards. SMEs capable of delivering high-quality patient care and managing service contracts effectively would benefit from seeking similar opportunities, especially those related to niche health services that may employ direct award methods.
