## Summary

Derbyshire Support & Facilities Services Ltd, based at Chesterfield Royal Hospital in the East Midlands, has recently completed the award stage of a procurement process titled 'Echocardiography Insourcing'. The procurement, classified under the CPV code for echocardiographs, was aimed at providing additional British Society of Echocardiography (BSE) qualified echosonographers to enhance the echocardiography service. The contract, valued at £190,000, was awarded to Health Now Limited, a supplier positioned as an SME, which will partner in this initiative from 4th August 2025 to 3rd August 2026. This decision was finalised on 24th July 2025, signalling the end of the tender period which concluded on the same day at noon.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in healthcare services, particularly those experienced in providing echocardiography solutions.

The project's framework is particularly beneficial for firms capable of scaling their operations to meet precise diagnostic targets within NHS frameworks, suggesting a competitive edge for health tech service providers seeking to boost their market presence in the UK public sector.
