The work is healthcare services delivered for West Norfolk, centred on the Trust’s King’s Lynn and Norfolk area. The requirement is classified as medical hospital services. It is relevant to healthcare providers and specialist clinical service companies able to deliver patient ECG monitoring at scale and provide audiology assessment services. The selected supplier, West Norfolk Health Limited, is based in King’s Lynn and is identified as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The buyer is The Queen Elizabeth Hospital King’s Lynn NHS Foundation Trust.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. The award date was 3 August 2026, and the contract was signed on 10 August 2026. West Norfolk Health Limited was selected for the requirement. The contract runs from 3 August 2026 to 31 March 2027 and has a value of £127,900. One bid was recorded, with the lowest and highest valid bid both valued at £127,900.

This award indicates demand for outsourced cardiac monitoring and audiology assessment services within an NHS hospital setting. A credible future competitor would need to operate a clinically safe ECG monitoring service capable of supporting a substantial patient caseload, alongside audiology assessment capacity for up to 2,000 patients. Relevant providers should be able to manage outsourced healthcare delivery, patient pathways, clinical reporting and coordination with an NHS trust. West Norfolk Health Limited’s award also shows that an SME healthcare provider can satisfy this type of requirement. Suppliers with established local or regional healthcare delivery capability, suitable clinical personnel, reliable service capacity and experience working with NHS organisations would be well placed when this requirement is next considered.
