Summary of the contracting process

Northampton General Hospital NHS Trust procured a consultant-led neurophysiology insourcing service to address workforce gaps and support its reporting requirements and clinic structure. The service falls within health services (CPV 85100000) and was intended for delivery at Northampton General Hospital in Northampton. The requirement was structured around a bespoke service for the Trust rather than a general supply of equipment or standalone clinical products. It was linked to a national framework agreement and an NHS subcontract for neurophysiology insourcing services. The selected provider, NeurophysCare Ltd, is based in Solihull and is recorded as an SME. The work therefore suits organisations able to provide specialist neurophysiology personnel and clinical service delivery within an NHS hospital environment.

The procurement has reached completion and an active award was made to NeurophysCare Ltd. The contract was signed on 2 September 2026 for £597,000 GBP. The planned service period was 12 months, from 7 September 2026 to 6 September 2027. The process used a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, under a framework agreement. The stated rationale was extreme urgency and the risk associated with loss of staff. The requirement was evaluated on price. One bid was recorded. The single lot covering the bespoke consultant-led service is marked cancelled, while the related award is active; the published outcome therefore identifies NeurophysCare Ltd as the selected supplier and the contract as active.

For suppliers assessing future demand from Northampton General Hospital NHS Trust, this procurement demonstrates a substantial requirement for outsourced neurophysiology capacity delivered by consultants. A credible competitor would need access to suitably qualified neurophysiology clinicians, the ability to organise and sustain clinic delivery, and systems for producing the required clinical reports. The service must be adaptable to a hospital’s existing workforce gaps, reporting arrangements and clinic structure, rather than relying on a fixed generic model. Experience of NHS clinical governance, hospital-site delivery and subcontracting arrangements would strengthen a supplier’s position. Access to the relevant national framework and familiarity with NHS contractual requirements would also be important, as the selected route used both a framework agreement and an NHS subcontract.
