## Summary

NHS England is launching a tender titled "Waiting List Reduction Framework Agreement" aimed at establishing a framework for service providers to assist in the reduction of waiting lists impacted by COVID-19. The procurement, classified under health services, will take place in the UK, with the tender period concluding on 27th August 2020. The contract period is expected to commence on 30th November 2020 and run until 1st December 2022, with a total value of £10 billion.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses engaged in health services, particularly those capable of delivering inpatient and outpatient care, alongside urgent elective care and cancer treatment. Businesses that specialise in providing healthcare services and that can meet the specific criteria set by NHS England would be particularly well-suited to compete for this substantial procurement. Engaging in this contract could significantly contribute to business growth in the healthcare sector, especially given the vast financial resources allocated for this initiative.
