## Summary

NHS England has concluded a procurement process titled "KCL research package to support Health and Growth Accelerators," targeting the health services industry. The procurement was conducted using a direct method under a single tender action below threshold, with Kings College London awarded the contract. The procurement stage is complete, and the contract award was active as of 31st October 2025. The contract period will run from 3rd November 2025 to 31st March 2026. Geographically, the service delivery is linked to England, with a focal location at Leeds, postal code LS1 4AP. This project is notably supported by a significant funding amounting to £45 million shared among selected areas, with the specific contract value at £99,000.

The KCL research package presents substantial opportunities for business growth within the health sector, particularly for large-scale enterprises given the scale of operations at Kings College London. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) may find themselves unsuitable for this contract due to the nature and size of the procurement. The focus on health services and accelerators points to potential collaborations in research and development, innovation in healthcare solutions, and contributions towards regional health improvements. Businesses with expertise in healthcare research, policy development, and accelerator programmes would be particularly well-suited to engage and benefit from such opportunities.
