Summary of the contracting process

NHS Humber and North Yorkshire Integrated Care Board commissioned acute hospital healthcare services for the population of Humber and North Yorkshire. The requirement covers hospital and related services, including medical practice and associated services. The provider is an NHS Trust delivering acute hospital care. Delivery is across the Humber and North Yorkshire area, corresponding to the East Riding of Yorkshire and North Lincolnshire. The service is intended to meet the population’s acute hospital healthcare needs and is provided by Hull University Teaching Hospital NHS Trust. This is a substantial, integrated healthcare service rather than a purchase of equipment or a discrete one-off clinical project.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Hull University Teaching Hospital NHS Trust. The award was approved by the Integrated Care Board and made through Direct Award Process A under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, without a prior competition. The stated rationale was that there was no realistic alternative provider, because of the nature of the services. The award date is not stated; the contract was signed on 11 March 2026. The contract runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2029, with an option to extend by two years. Its stated lifetime value is £2,866,676,655, reflecting contributions from the relevant authority and associate commissioners. One bid was recorded. The lot is marked cancelled in the tender data, although the award and contract are active.

For suppliers considering future acute hospital provision for this buyer, the award demonstrates demand for large-scale, population-wide NHS acute care, delivered by an NHS Trust. A credible provider would need the clinical workforce, hospital facilities and operational capacity to sustain acute services across the Humber and North Yorkshire area, as well as the ability to meet the population’s healthcare needs. The stated selection rationale is particularly significant: the buyer considered the incumbent provider the only capable provider because of the nature of the services. This indicates that a future competitor would need to demonstrate equivalent service capability and a compelling basis for being a realistic alternative, rather than simply offering a lower price. The route used was a direct award under the Provider Selection Regime.
