UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust bought specialist medical consultancy to support an orthopaedic incident. The requirement was for a specialist consultant rather than a broader clinical staffing service, with the stated purpose of providing support in response to the incident. The work is associated with the Trust in Cambridge and falls within medical specialist services. This is a healthcare consultancy opportunity suited to organisations that can provide suitably experienced specialist clinical advice and support to an NHS hospital. The procurement covered a single requirement, with the service delivered for the Trust’s operational needs in Cambridge.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. It was run as a below-threshold tender using a method recorded as unknown. I C Consultants Limited was selected as the supplier for the single lot, and the contract was signed on 8 September 2026. The contract runs from 15 September 2026 to 14 December 2026. Its value is £15,000 excluding VAT, or £18,000 including VAT. The award is recorded under medical specialist services. The published outcome identifies one selected supplier and one contract. The process was conducted under the Procurement Act 2023, and the contract is below the applicable threshold.

This procurement indicates demand from Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for specialist clinical consultancy to support an orthopaedic incident. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need access to suitably qualified medical specialists, the ability to provide focused advice during an operational clinical incident, and experience working with an NHS hospital or comparable healthcare organisation. The requirement is likely to favour providers that can mobilise an appropriate consultant, understand orthopaedic service pressures, and give practical specialist support within a defined engagement. The selected supplier is recorded as an SME, showing that this type of specialist hospital consultancy can be delivered by a focused smaller provider rather than only a large healthcare business.
