OJEU - F2 - Contract Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS Grampian is seeking an outsourced general surgery service specialising in colorectal procedures. The requirement covers the provision of the service by the supplier from its own site or sites, serving patients across the NHS Grampian region. This is a healthcare services opportunity rather than a supply or construction contract. The classification is CPV 85100000, covering health services. It is suited to organisations able to provide colorectal general surgery as an outsourced service and to work with NHS Grampian’s operational and administrative arrangements. The contracting organisation is NHS Grampian, whose base is in Aberdeen.

The procurement reached tender: NHS Grampian invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. The buyer set 31 August 2026 at 12:00 UTC as the tender deadline. The contract is due to run from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2027, with two possible one-year extensions if funding is available. The planned award and bid opening are both on 1 September 2026 at 12:00 UTC, and bids must remain valid until 30 September 2026. Evaluation is split equally between quality and cost, at 50% each. Variants are not allowed. The Supplier’s Questionnaire must be completed in PCS-Tender, and the tender requires staff names and qualifications.

This opportunity suits specialist healthcare providers able to deliver outsourced colorectal general surgery from one or more suitable sites across the NHS Grampian region. Bidders need the clinical capability to provide the requested general surgery service and the organisational capacity to manage delivery away from NHS premises. The requirement places emphasis on identifying the staff who will perform the work and providing their professional qualifications, so providers should have an appropriately qualified clinical team and be ready to evidence its composition. Suppliers must also be able to complete the Supplier’s Questionnaire within PCS-Tender and submit an English-language electronic bid. The equal quality and cost weighting gives capable providers a clear basis for competing on both service delivery and price.
