## Summary

University Hospitals Dorset NHS Foundation Trust has completed the tender process for their Prosthetics and Orthotics Service, classified under the CPV code 85111600 for orthotic services. The selected procurement method was a call-off from a framework agreement. This contract, valued at £2,750,000, will serve the Poole area in England, with services to start on 1st October 2024 and run until 30th September 2029. The awarding of the contract occurred on 19th July 2024, with Hugh Steeper Limited (trading as Steeper) selected as the supplier.

This tender represents a robust opportunity for businesses specialising in prosthetic and orthotic services to establish a long-term partnership with a leading NHS Foundation Trust. Given the contract's substantial value and duration, it is particularly well-suited for larger organisations with the capacity to manage an extensive and ongoing service provision. Companies looking to expand their footprint in the healthcare sector and secure a stable revenue stream over five years will find this contract especially beneficial. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) were not specifically targeted in this procurement, highlighting the need for established providers in the industry.
