Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process, managed by Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, is focused on securing Insourced Gynaecology Services under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 - Direct Award Process C. Located at the Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust and potentially extended to Northern Lincolnshire & Goole, this procurement aims to enhance patient choice and accessibility within the local healthcare framework. The award stage is currently active with an intention to award the contract, beginning its standstill period until midnight on 23 June 2026. The procurement method employed is limited, eliminating the need for prior publication of a call for competition. Key personnel involved in the awarding decision include the Family Services Operations Director and Group Chief Finance Officer. The anticipated contract value is £320,000 for an initial term of five months, with potential extensions bringing the total to £765,000.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses in the healthcare services sector to support and expand their operations by enhancing the service criteria and key performance indicators demanded by the NHS Trust. Companies like ICS Operations Ltd., known for delivering high-quality gynaecological services with experienced staffing, are particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. While the current provider has been assessed and proven to meet required standards, this tender is structured to allow continued service excellence and potential locality expansion. Businesses geared towards healthcare innovation and integration within established care systems might find a strategic advantage in leveraging this procurement opportunity to further establish precedence in public health services.
