Summary of the contracting process

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured outsourced cardiology outpatient activity to help the service recover its elective position. The requirement is categorised as a service and relates to activity delivered in Cambridge, within the Trust’s operations. The procurement also carries a classification for IT services, including consulting, software development, internet and support, although the stated requirement is focused on cardiology outpatient activity. The buyer is a public NHS foundation trust based at Hills Road, Cambridge. The selected supplier, Mayflower Healthcare Alliance Ltd, is an SME based in Billericay. This opportunity is therefore relevant to healthcare providers able to deliver outsourced cardiology outpatient services, and potentially to suppliers with the associated service-support capability described in the classification.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a below-threshold procedure whose specific method is recorded as unknown. One lot was completed. Mayflower Healthcare Alliance Ltd was awarded the contract, which was signed on 13 July 2026. The contract runs from 23 July 2026 to 22 July 2027 and is active. Its value is £22,973 excluding VAT, or £27,567.60 including VAT. The award concerns services for Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. The published outcome identifies the supplier and contract, but does not set out award criteria, weighting, eligibility requirements or a separate award date. This is a completed procurement rather than an opportunity to submit a bid, but it records the buyer’s purchasing route, requirement and contract scale.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates demand from Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for outsourced cardiology outpatient activity supporting elective recovery. A credible future competitor would need to provide the relevant clinical service at outpatient scale, work effectively with an NHS foundation trust and support the operational objective of reducing elective activity backlogs. The selected supplier is an SME, indicating that the requirement was not necessarily limited to a large national provider. Businesses considering similar work should be able to demonstrate dependable delivery, suitable cardiology outpatient capacity and the governance needed to operate within an NHS setting. The associated classification also points to possible demand for consulting, software development, internet or support services connected with the requirement.
