## Summary

The Bedfordshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is in the process of awarding a contract for urgent treatment centre services at Bedford Hospital. This contract has a value of £4.4 million and is intended to be awarded to Atrumed Healthcare Limited, the existing provider, under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR). The award is based on criteria including quality, innovation, value, integration of services, and social responsibility. The procurement stage is currently at the award stage, with a standstill period ending on 31 March 2025, and the contract duration set from 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2027.

This tender offers substantial business growth opportunities for businesses in the healthcare sector, particularly those experienced in providing general-practitioner and urgent care services. While the contract is set to be awarded to the existing provider, Atrumed Healthcare Limited, other businesses may be encouraged to monitor similar opportunities that arise under the Provider Selection Regime. Companies that are innovative, provide quality services and can demonstrate value, integration, and social impact are well-suited to compete for such tenders in the future.
