## Summary

The York and Scarborough Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust has successfully completed a procurement process to insource clinical support services specifically for Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) under the PSR Urgent Award procedure. This contract, classified under the industry category of gastroenterologist services (CPV code 85121251), focuses on addressing urgent healthcare needs resulting from unforeseen staffing changes. The contract covers the Yorkshire region (UKE21) and was awarded without a prior call for competition. Initial service provision was set from 10 March 2025 to 30 June 2025, with an option to extend for a further three months, valued at up to £87,000. The procurement process has reached the award stage, with the contract signed into effect on 7 March 2025.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in healthcare services. The awarded contract to Gutcare.org Ltd, operating as medcareworld, highlights the importance of agility and expertise in emergency healthcare provisions when competing for urgent contracts. Companies with capabilities in delivering specialist gastroenterology services, particularly those that can quickly adapt to unexpected healthcare demands, would find themselves well-positioned to compete for similar opportunities in the future.
