Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust procured ophthalmology outpatient insourcing services to help meet significant demand pressures and reduce risks to patient safety. The work was for ophthalmology outpatient care at New Cross Hospital in Wolverhampton. This is a clinical healthcare service requirement, rather than a purchase of equipment or construction work.

The procurement is complete. The Trust selected MEDINET CLINICAL SERVICES LTD, and the contract is active. The contract was signed on 9 September 2026 and is valued at £472,384. The requirement was arranged through a limited procedure without a prior competition notice. It was evaluated on price alone. The procurement comprised one lot for ophthalmology outpatient insourcing; that lot is recorded as cancelled, although the award and contract are active.

For suppliers considering a future requirement from this Trust, the award indicates demand for outsourced ophthalmology outpatient clinical capacity to relieve service pressure and support patient safety. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate that it can deliver ophthalmology outpatient services in a hospital setting and respond to substantial demand pressures. The selected supplier was a clinical services company, and the single bid recorded shows the award followed limited competition without a prior call for competition. This is relevant to providers with the clinical workforce and operational capacity to deliver insourced ophthalmology care at New Cross Hospital in Wolverhampton.
