## Summary

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, has successfully concluded a tender for the provision of "Mental Health/Learning Disability Beds" in response to the pressures caused by the COVID-19 Omicron variant. This procurement, classified under health services (CPV code: 85100000), was carried out through a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, which is reflective of the extreme urgency necessitated by unforeseen circumstances. The contract, valued at £2,600,000, was signed on 5th January 2022 and is currently active following the formal award process that received a total of four bids from suppliers, primarily from non-EU entities. 

This contract presents significant growth opportunities for businesses operating within the healthcare sector, particularly those that specialise in mental health services and bed provision for medical use. Companies capable of providing healthcare infrastructure capable of promptly responding to fluctuations in demand, driven by public health emergencies, will find themselves well-positioned to capitalise on such tenders. With the increasing focus on mental health, businesses with expertise in delivering high-quality services in this domain may benefit substantially from participating in future procurement processes of a similar nature.
