This procurement is categorised under the health services industry, specifically focusing on in vitro fertilisation services for the UKK12 region, which includes Bath. The contract is governed by the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 and not by the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, following a direct award procedure without prior competitive tendering. The decision to award was approved on 1st May 2024, with the contract commencing on 1st April 2024 and lasting until 31st March 2027.
