## Summary

Cheshire East Council has undertaken a procurement process for "Short stay CCG beds to support hospital discharges (pathway 2)", aimed at providing residential and nursing beds to assist hospital discharges within the North West region of the United Kingdom. This contract, valued at £1,990,144 and funded by the NHS, is currently complete, marking the final stage of the procurement process.

The tender period concluded on 30 March 2022, and the contract has been awarded following a waiver of the standard procurement method.
