This process, initiated under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, was conducted via a Direct Award Process A, highlighting the absence of competition for technical reasons. The award falls under the health services category (CPV: 85100000) and covers various locations in the East of England, including trusts such as Bedfordshire Hospitals, Cambridge University Hospitals, and others. The contract was awarded on 1st April 2025, with a span of one year and a range of lifetime contract values, such as £50,285,037.19 for Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. The procurement method used was limited, without prior publication of a call for competition, deemed as a necessary approach in this scenario. This procurement opportunity is sizable and tailor-made for large organisations that can provide specialised health services across multiple locations. The confirmation of contracts offers growth potential for businesses capable of operating within the stringent regulations of the NHS structures. Firms specialising in healthcare delivery with a focus on bespoke acute services are particularly well-suited to compete for similar future contracts. Given the substantial contract values involved, participation can lead to significant business expansion and increased regional impact in the healthcare sector. This procurement, while specific in its demand, underscores the potential for business growth through strategic partnerships with health service providers like NHS England. ## Notice Acute contracts for Specialised Commissioning Services across the East of England region. ### Lot Information Lot 1: BEDFORDSHIRE HOSPITALS NHS FOUNDATION TRUST An award has been made following Direct Award Process A in line with the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023.
