Summary of the contracting process

The Queen Elizabeth Hospital King's Lynn NHS Foundation Trust has concluded the contract titled "Elective Services Echo Insourcing" within the medical hospital services industry. This procurement process was carried out under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, indicating a specific regulatory framework separate from the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The contract aims to provide insourcing services for delivering 1,200 echocardiographs in the UKH16 region, specifically from Kings Lynn to London. The contract stage is complete, with the contract's active status beginning on 14th July 2026 and set to conclude on 30th September 2027. The procurement was conducted via a limited method, without prior publication, highlighting the use of a framework agreement.

This contract presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in medical services, particularly those with expertise in insourcing and echocardiograph delivery. With a total contract value of £77,400, companies like Elective Services Ltd, an SME based in London, could benefit from similar opportunities to expand their service reach within the medical sector. The selection criteria for the award emphasized the ability to provide necessary services effectively, competitive service fees, and adherence to timelines, suggesting that businesses with robust service delivery capabilities and cost-efficient practices stand a better chance in such procurements.
