Summary of the contracting process

The Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has completed the award stage for a pilot procurement process titled "T&O Insourcing - pilot," focused on orthopaedic services within the healthcare services industry. This procurement, which is classified under the CPV code 85121283, falls under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) Regulations 2023 and is notably executed without prior publication of a call for competition. The contract, valued at £303,732, covers the period between 18th July and 29th November 2026, and the service delivery will take place in the UKH1 region. The procurement was facilitated using a limited method, with NHS England serving as the review and mediation body.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in healthcare service provision, particularly those with expertise in orthopaedic care, to expand their market and service offerings. Medinet Clinical Services Ltd, based in Birmingham, has already been awarded the contract, highlighting the trust placed in SMEs to deliver specialised health services. Companies within the healthcare sector could leverage similar opportunities to penetrate the NHS service supply chain, establish a foothold in the welfare-oriented public sector, and utilise frameworks like the NHS Workforce Alliance to secure contracts without traditional competitive tendering processes.
