Summary of the contracting process

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde procured outsourced private healthcare services covering a range of medical procedures. The requirement concerns hospital and related medical services, including healthcare delivery that can support NHS activity. Work is for NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde and is associated with its services in Glasgow. The procurement was run through National Procurement’s Dynamic Purchasing System for Private Healthcare – Outsourcing, which brings together suppliers able to provide private healthcare capacity. The scope is therefore relevant to private hospitals, independent healthcare groups and specialist medical providers with the clinical facilities, staff and operational arrangements needed to deliver hospital-based procedures for an NHS organisation. The relevant service classifications include health services, hospital services and medical hospital services.

This procurement has been awarded following a mini-competition under the National Procurement Dynamic Purchasing System for Private Healthcare – Outsourcing. Eight bids were recorded. The contract was awarded to Nuffield Health, Spire Healthcare Limited, Laser Vision Scotland Ltd trading as Vision Scotland, and Circle Health Group Limited, with an awarded value of £2,630,991. The contracts run until 31 March 2027. NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde reserved the right to extend them by up to six months on up to two occasions. The award is recorded as an active contract. The process was evaluated through the DPS mini-competition route, with suppliers admitted to the relevant private healthcare outsourcing system eligible to compete.

For suppliers assessing this buyer’s future requirements, the award demonstrates demand for outsourced private healthcare capacity to deliver multiple medical procedures for NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde. Credible competitors would need to operate private hospital or specialist clinical services, with appropriate facilities, qualified clinical staff, governance arrangements and the capacity to undertake procedures for NHS patients. The selected supplier group shows that the requirement can suit both large independent healthcare networks and a specialist provider focused on vision services. Experience of delivering hospital-based medical procedures, managing patient pathways and meeting NHS contractual and quality expectations would strengthen a future offer. Suppliers would also need to qualify for and work effectively through National Procurement’s Dynamic Purchasing System for Private Healthcare – Outsourcing.
