## Summary

The Swansea Bay University Health Board is conducting a procurement process for the position of Consultant Interventional Radiologist, classified under recruitment services. This tender is currently complete, with the contract awarded on February 1, 2022, for a total value of £140,000. The purpose of this procurement was to secure a locum radiologist to ensure the safe delivery of interventional radiology services across multiple locations, including Port Talbot and other regions within the UK. The procurement method employed was limited, specifically awarded without prior publication of a call for competition.

Businesses that can provide qualified Interventional Radiologists, or similar medical professionals, may find this a lucrative avenue for expanding their client base and supporting the NHS in addressing critical staffing shortages. With the potential for ongoing contracts in the healthcare sector, companies that can demonstrate reliability and quick response times to urgent staffing needs will likely thrive in this environment.

### Procurement Information

An advert for substantive post and subsequent advert for NHS locum post have failed to recruit. It has not been possible to identify suitable locum with Framework agencies but a candidate was identified with a agency who are not on any Framework Agreements. Appointing the IR Radiologist is essential for maintaining safe and effective care to a number of services throughout the health board. Failure to appoint would have significant clinical implications and would impact on waiting times.
