UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital NHS Foundation Trust commissioned the Connecting Kidney Care programme. The requirement covers the Trust’s share of Lead HEIM costs for support to the Trust and the HI Network. It is an administrative healthcare service associated with kidney-care coordination and programme support, rather than the supply of clinical equipment or construction works. The buying organisation is based in Liverpool. The contracted service is intended to support activity across the United Kingdom. The selected provider is Nottingham University Hospitals, based in Nottingham, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a large NHS healthcare organisation operating across organisational and network boundaries. Businesses with experience in healthcare administration, NHS collaboration, programme coordination or support to kidney-care networks would find the subject matter most relevant.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. One requirement was awarded to Nottingham University Hospitals. The contract was signed on 14 July 2026, with a contract period from 15 July 2026 to 15 July 2026. Its value is £19,749. The award is active and the contract is active. The procurement used a single lot and was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender. The stated requirement was to fund Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital NHS Foundation Trust’s share of Lead HEIM costs for support to the Trust and the HI Network. The award record classifies the service as administrative healthcare services.

This award shows a defined NHS demand for administrative support connected with kidney-care programmes, Lead HEIM costs and the HI Network. A credible competitor for comparable work would need to understand NHS operating environments, work effectively with hospital trusts and healthcare networks, and manage programme or administrative support across organisational boundaries. Relevant capability may include coordinating shared healthcare initiatives, handling service-related administration, supporting communications between participating organisations and maintaining reliable records for funded activity. Nottingham University Hospitals’ selection indicates that substantial NHS operational capacity and an established healthcare delivery environment can be well placed for this type of requirement. Organisations developing a similar offer should be able to demonstrate practical experience in NHS programme support and the ability to work within public-sector governance and funding arrangements.
