## Summary

The procurement process is facilitated by the Swansea Bay University Health Board, seeking a contract titled "Outsourcing Facility Only" within the medical hospital services industry. This tender is located in Port Talbot and Newport, UK, and has progressed to the Award stage. The original tender initiation took place against the backdrop of significant patient waiting lists exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, with a procurement method classified as limited, which allowed for an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition.
