Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust bought insourced trauma and orthopaedic services. The provider supplies clinical services to support the Trust’s orthopaedic care; this is described as a new service for the Trust, although the selected provider had delivered services under other contracts. The service was delivered in Norwich. The requirement was covered by a single lot and procured through the NHS Workforce Alliance framework for insourced services supporting healthcare provision.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Medinet Clinical Services Ltd. The contract was signed on 2 October 2026, with services scheduled from 4 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its expected lifetime value was £275,000. The award was made without competition under the NHS Workforce Alliance Insourced Services to Support the Provision of Healthcare Services framework, using a route without prior publication of a competition. Price was the stated evaluation criterion, and one bid was recorded. The lot is marked cancelled in the tender information, while the award and contract are recorded as active.

For suppliers considering similar NHS work, this award indicates demand for insourced orthopaedic clinical capacity from Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. A credible provider would need to deliver orthopaedic services that can support the Trust’s care provision, and demonstrate relevant experience working with the Trust or comparable healthcare organisations. The selected supplier had previously provided services to the Trust under other contracts, showing that established delivery experience with the buyer was relevant in this case. The requirement was sourced through a healthcare-specific framework rather than an open competition, so suppliers seeking comparable work would need to understand and qualify for relevant NHS framework routes as well as maintain the clinical capability and capacity to deliver the service.
