Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process undertaken by the Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust involves the provision of dental services for long-term inpatients. This procurement falls under the health services category, with the project primarily located in the UK. The contract was awarded using a direct award process under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, eliminating the need for a prior call for competition. The contract was successfully awarded to North Cheshire and Mersey NHS Foundation Trust, and it was finalised on 1st April 2026, with a contract value of £83,223.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses operating within the health services sector, particularly those with capabilities in delivering hospital-based dental care. Companies with existing relationships with healthcare providers or those looking to expand into the UK healthcare market may find entry through such contracts advantageous. Given the closed nature of the procurement, businesses that have proven track records with NHS or similar organisations are best suited to compete for similar future tenders managed under directives outside the typical public contract regulations.
