## Summary

The Somerset NHS Foundation Trust has completed the tender process for the Provision of Bowel Cancer Screening Programme Endoscopy Services. The contract was awarded to Somerset Surgical Services Ltd with a value of £74,100.00 for services intended to be provided between 01.04.24-31.03.25. The main procurement category is services in the surgical hospital industry, with the contract primarily covering colonoscopy services. The procurement method used was a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition.

This procurement opportunity offers potential business growth for companies in the healthcare sector specialising in surgical hospital services. Businesses experienced in providing endoscopy services and meeting the quality and value criteria are well-suited to compete. The call-off contract allows for the extension of services beyond the initial contract period, presenting a longer-term partnership opportunity for interested healthcare providers. The deliberate focus on quality, innovation, and service sustainability underlines the importance placed on delivering high-quality and effective healthcare services to meet patient needs.

## Notice

The aim of the contract is predominantly to cover colonoscopy.

The procedures will be diagnostic (except polypectomy, see below) and patients will be from the endoscopy waiting list and the list for the Bowel Cancer Screening Programme (BCSP).
