Summary of the contracting process

Cambridgeshire County Council has completed the procurement process for providing medical specialist services under the title "Cambridgeshire Coroners – Direct Award B awards." This procurement falls under the services category and operates in the region of Cambridgeshire, specifically covering locations in UKH11 and UKH12. The procurement used a limited method known as a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) direct award process, bypassing the need for prior publication of a call for competition. The contract awarding stage concluded with services set from 14th July to 16th July 2026, involving direct awards to several medical practitioners, namely Dr D Riddington, Dr E Mullins, Dr M Robson, and Dr Protty, who each received individual contracts. Contracts were activated on 14th and 16th July 2026, with contract values ranging from GBP 480 to GBP 5000. The process confirmed compliance with specific regulations, noting that the Public Contract Regulations 2015 do not apply.

This procurement initiative opens up avenues for medical professionals and organisations, especially SMEs, aiming to enhance their service offerings in the medical sector. Businesses specialising in medical specialist services that can adapt to flexible service delivery across regional areas like Cambridgeshire are ideally suited to benefit from such opportunities. Participating in contracts like these can significantly contribute to business growth, offering the chance to deliver essential services in partnership with local authorities. This process highlights the demand for high-quality, patient-focused medical service providers, reinforcing the scope for businesses to establish or expand their footprint in regional public sector markets.
