## Summary

The NHS Cheshire and Merseyside Integrated Care Board has concluded the contracting process for the provision of Acute Specialist and Secondary Care Services across Cheshire and Merseyside. This contract, with an annual value of £25,112,000, was awarded under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 and will run from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026. The primary supplier is The Walton Centre, located in Liverpool, with services accessible to regions including Cheshire, Merseyside, Greater Manchester, and Lancashire & South Cumbria. This healthcare procurement falls under the industry category of Health Services and was conducted using a limited procurement method, bypassing the need for prior publication of a call for competition in accordance with specific regulatory criteria.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses operating within the health services sector, particularly those capable of delivering specialised neurology and neurosurgery services. Companies that can offer comprehensive acute care solutions and adhere to regional healthcare demands are well-suited to engage with such contracts. The presence of associate commissioners, such as NHS Greater Manchester ICB and NHS Lancashire and South Cumbria ICB, underscores the potential for business expansion beyond Cheshire and Merseyside, allowing suppliers to establish a broader regional presence and make a substantial impact in the healthcare landscape.
