## Summary

The Humber Teaching NHS Foundation Trust has completed a selective procurement process for VAT recovery services, with Liaisons UK Ltd awarded the contract valued at £40,000. This procurement aimed to conduct an independent analysis of the Trust's expenditure on agency doctors over the last four years, focusing on the potential recovery of overpaid VAT from agency suppliers. The procurement falls under the services category, specifically analysis services, and is set to be executed within Yorkshire and the Humber, United Kingdom. The contract commenced on 1 December 2025 and will conclude on 30 November 2029, following the completion of the tender period which ended on 30 November 2025.

Businesses specialising in financial and tax consultancy services, particularly those with experience in VAT analysis and recovery, would find growth opportunities in tenders like this. This contract was particularly suited to SMEs and VCSEs due to the nature of the procurement method—call-off from a framework agreement—and the demonstrated potential benefits for these organisations. Engaging with such contracts can enhance business portfolios, offer significant insights into public sector requirements, and establish long-term relationships with health sector entities like the Humber Teaching NHS Foundation Trust.

## Notice

Due to a potential change in VAT rules, the Trust requires an independent review of expenditure on agency doctors over the last four years. The review will determine whether VAT was incorrectly charged on locum doctor placements and, where applicable, facilitate recovery of overpaid VAT from agency suppliers.
