Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, has awarded a contract for "Planned Care Outsourcing - ENT" services in the UK, particularly targeting the UKL22 region. The procurement is conducted under the Health Services (Provider Selection Regime) (Wales) Regulations 2025, which exempts it from the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and the Procurement Act 2023. The contract, valued at £509,053.28, was signed on 16th December 2025 and covers the period from 1st October 2025 to 31st March 2026. The procurement stage is at the award update and contract update phase, following a previous award announcement in July 2025. The procurement method utilised was a limited procedure with a mini-competition on an established framework agreement. The successful suppliers for this project include ST JOSEPH'S INDEPENDENT HOSPITAL LIMITED and NUFFIELD HEALTH.

This contract provides a significant opportunity for businesses involved in providing healthcare services, particularly those specialising in outsourcing or insourcing clinical, surgical, and diagnostic services. Large-scale healthcare providers with the capability to handle ENT procedures would benefit from participating in such procurements. The involvement in this contract not only offers financial gain due to its significant value but also the opportunity for companies to strengthen their positioning and relationships within the healthcare sector. The structured competition and evaluation based on technical ability, cost efficiency, and social value ensure that only providers that can deliver high-quality, efficient care within the stipulated timeline are selected, aligning the business goals with public service needs.
