Summary of the contracting process

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured outsourced care for cardiology patients waiting for treatment, described as a “Summer Sprint” for patients on the cardiology Referral to Treatment (RTT) pathway. The service supports the Trust in addressing its cardiology waiting list through external clinical provision. The awarded service is classified in the data under a business and management consultancy code, but the procurement title and description identify the requirement as outsourced cardiology patient care. Delivery is in Cambridge, within the United Kingdom. The process covered one lot, for the Trust’s cardiology RTT patients.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Mayflower Healthcare Alliance Ltd. The contract was signed on 2 October 2026 and runs from 5 October 2026 to 4 October 2027. Its value is £105,567 excluding VAT and £126,680 including VAT. The procedure is described as below threshold, with the specific method not identified. The procurement was divided into one lot, which is complete. The published data does not set out evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility requirements, so the outcome information provides no stated scoring basis against which to compare bids.

For suppliers considering similar work for Cambridge University Hospitals, this award demonstrates demand for external support with cardiology patients waiting for treatment, delivered in Cambridge. A credible competitor would need to show that it can provide suitable cardiology services for patients on a Referral to Treatment pathway and mobilise provision aligned to a focused waiting-list initiative. The selected supplier, Mayflower Healthcare Alliance Ltd, is recorded as an SME, indicating that delivery was awarded to a smaller supplier rather than being limited to a large provider. The procurement used a below-threshold route and was packaged as a single lot, giving an indication of the buyer’s approach to this requirement. The source information does not describe particular clinical accreditations, staffing levels or evaluation measures, so it does not establish these as differentiators.
