Summary of the contracting process

The Newcastle Upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has completed the procurement process for a Breast Screening Service, classified under the health services industry (CPV code 85100000). The contract was awarded through a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, specifically under the Provider Selection Regime according to the Health Care Services Regulations 2023. The procurement process did not lie within the scope of the Procurement Act 2023. Notably, the standstill period commenced on 17th June 2026. The procurement took place in the region of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UKC22, and the buyer was The Newcastle Upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, with Matthew Hampson as the contact point.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for companies specialising in health services, particularly those capable of delivering high-quality breast screening services. Understanding the criteria against which the provider was assessed—Quality and Innovation, Value, Integration and collaboration, Improving access and reducing inequalities, and Social Value—might guide other prospective bidders. The awarded supplier, North Cumbria Integrated Care NHS FT, suggests that large-scale providers with a robust infrastructure in health services would be well-suited for similar procurement opportunities in the future. This opportunity also highlights the potential for collaboration and partnership in the broader healthcare sector within the UK.
