## Summary

The procurement process, initiated by the Home Office, involves the award of a contract titled "Provision of Medics through a Managed Service." This contract falls within the medical services industry category and is intended for operations primarily in the Central/Eastern/Southern Mediterranean Sea and the Aegean/Ionian Sea. The tender period concluded on 1st December 2016, with the contract effective from 1st January 2017 to 31st March 2017. The award was published on 28th February 2017, following the successful identification of a supplier, Overseas Healthcare Ltd, who is tasked with providing medical services to refugees and crew members at sea.

This tender presents substantial business opportunities for organisations specialising in healthcare and emergency medical services, particularly those capable of operating in challenging maritime environments. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) will find this particularly advantageous, given their eligibility for consideration. Businesses with expertise in providing medical care, managing healthcare logistics, and supporting humanitarian efforts in maritime contexts may be well-suited to engage in similar contracts, enhancing their visibility and growth prospects in the public sector.
