UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust commissioned an independent review of the internally generated drivers in its deficit report. The review supports actions recommended by the Trust’s Recovery Director. This is financial management consultancy work, rather than a general audit or wider NHS advisory assignment. The work concerns the Trust’s own analysis of the causes of its deficit and requires an independent perspective on that report. The buying organisation is Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, and the requirement is associated with its operations in Bradford. The published scope is focused on reviewing the deficit report’s drivers; it does not describe a broader programme of financial transformation or ongoing consultancy.

The procurement is complete: PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP was selected and holds an active contract. The Trust used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 30 June 2026 and runs from 1 to 31 July 2026. Its value is £50,000 excluding VAT and £60,000 including VAT. The requirement was arranged as a single lot. The process data does not set out a scored evaluation basis or specific award criteria, so the recorded outcome is the selection of PwC through the direct route rather than a comparative competition. This was a services contract for the independent review of the Trust’s internally generated drivers of the deficit report, undertaken as part of actions recommended by the Recovery Director.

For consultancies competing for similar work from Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, this award demonstrates demand for independent financial analysis of the Trust’s own deficit reporting. A credible provider would need to review how the reported drivers have been derived, assess whether the analysis is sound and provide clear, impartial findings that can inform recovery actions. The work is a focused piece of consultancy rather than a large-scale transformation programme, so relevant expertise in NHS finance, deficit analysis and communicating evidence to senior decision-makers would be central. The Trust used a direct, non-competitive route for this purchase; suppliers should therefore understand that this award does not show a competitive selection process or publish criteria against which bidders were scored.
