## Summary

The East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust (ESNEFT) has awarded a contract titled "Sleep Studies PSR Contract" to address a shortfall in Respiratory Sleep Diagnostic services due to a recruitment gap for full-time clinicians. This urgent short-term solution will manage backlogged patients until the Trust is fully staffed. The contract, valued at £35,640, spans from 1st October 2024 to 31st December 2024 and will be executed through a call-off from a framework agreement. The procurement falls under the "Hospital services" industry category and took place in Colchester, UK. The procurement stage has been completed with the award active as of 24th September 2024.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in medical analysis services and respiratory monitors, particularly those capable of handling short-term, high-volume patient diagnostics. Companies with an established framework agreement with NHS trusts, like Dolby Vivisol, the awarded supplier, would be well-positioned to compete. Outsourcing this service ensures the continuity of patient care, creating a critical role for suppliers in supporting healthcare delivery during transitional periods of internal staffing. This contract is particularly suited to established providers with the capacity for rapid deployment to alleviate patient backlogs effectively.

## Notice

SNEFT is facing a temporary shortfall in its Respiratory Sleep Diagnostic tests provision due to the recruitment gap for full-time clinicians. To maintain patient care and ensure continuity under the Sleep Study Pathway, ESNEFT needs an urgent short-term solution to manage its backlogged patients until it is fully staffed. Outsourcing with an external provider will allow ESNEFT to temporarily collaborate to handle the backfill of patients. This would ensure that patients receive timely care while ESNEFT completes its recruitment process
