## Summary

The procurement process was led by The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, located in Birmingham, United Kingdom. The contract relates to the Human Tissue Authority and involves a direct procurement method executed below threshold without competition. The process is in the Award stage, having been completed by 29th April 2025. The contract, titled "Human Tissue Authority PO," covers a service category, specifically storage services, with a gross amount of £12,150. This contract runs from 12th March 2025 to 11th March 2026 and was signed on 11th March 2025. Key stakeholders include University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust as the procuring entity and process contact point, along with the Human Tissue Authority as the supplier. The procurement is governed by legal instructions under the statute [2023/54](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents).

This contract opens opportunities for businesses involved in service provision, particularly those offering storage services, to establish connections within the healthcare industry. Large-scale suppliers such as the Human Tissue Authority are well-suited to compete in this procurement process, given the nature of the direct procurement method used. Companies in Birmingham or the greater United Kingdom involved in facilities and storage management for health-related services may also find similar opportunities within collaborative healthcare needs like those managed by the Birmingham and Solihull Procurement Collaborative. This type of procurement allows businesses to directly engage with NHS Foundation Trusts, potentially leading to future opportunities in public sector healthcare contracts.
