## Summary

The recent procurement process concluded with the NHS Dorset Integrated Care Board awarding a contract for "Palliative Care Services for Children and Young People" to Julia's House. This health services contract, valued at £635,860, falls under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) in accordance with the Health Care Services Regulations 2023, which means the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 are not applicable. The procurement method used was a limited, direct award without prior publication, justifying its exclusion from standard procedures. The contract, relevant to the health services industry category, focuses on providing crucial care services in the UKK2 region (South West England) and was signed on 4th March 2025.

This contract creates substantial business opportunities, particularly for large-scale healthcare providers specialising in paediatric palliative care services. Julia's House, the chosen supplier, highlights the potential advantage for businesses capable of delivering specialised health services and navigating niche regulatory frameworks like the PSR. Companies with expertise in handling similar service-oriented contracts, especially those familiar with direct award processes and possessing established methods for providing sensitive care to young demographics, are well-suited to compete in this sector.
