## Summary

The Northamptonshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust is seeking suppliers for a four-year framework titled "Framework for the Provision of Prison Healthcare Services". This initiative falls under the health and social work services industry, primarily focusing on delivering integrated healthcare services within Her Majesty's Prisons throughout the East Midlands, including establishments such as HMP Whitemoor and HMP Littlehey. The procurement process is currently in the Award stage, with key dates including the award date on 20th April 2016, and the contract period running from 21st April 2016 to 31st March 2020. The total value of this framework is £100,000, and the method of procurement is an open procedure.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses in the health services sector, particularly those offering primary and physical healthcare services such as dental, pharmacy, and mental health care.
