Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Berkshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust has formally awarded a contract under the Provider Selection Regime to provide general-practitioner services during out-of-hours periods at BHFT wards located in St. Marks Hospital, Maidenhead, and Upton Hospital, Slough. This service, valued at £41,270 (exclusive of VAT), will be delivered from 1st April 2027 to 31st March 2028. The procurement was conducted through a direct award process (without prior publication of a call for competition) and falls outside the scope of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The contract was awarded to East Berkshire Primary Care Out of Hours, with Berkshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust acting as the buying organisation and main buyer, located at London House, London Road, Bracknell, UK.

This tender presents a significant business growth opportunity for companies involved in healthcare service provision, particularly those specialising in out-of-hours primary care. It is also relevant for businesses looking to strengthen collaboration and service integration within the public healthcare sector. While the contract has been awarded to the existing provider, future similar opportunities may suit small to medium enterprises (SMEs) within the health sector that can demonstrate innovation, quality service delivery, and value, while contributing to reducing health inequalities and facilitating patient choice.
