## Summary

The public procurement process for "Insourcing Activity General Surgery", initiated by the Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust, falls under the completion stage, as of 20th May 2025. This contract, classified under the health services category, encompasses insourcing activities within the UKD3 region, specifically Trafford. Conducted without prior publication of a call for competition, this limited procurement method aimed to continue using the current service provider under PSR regulations, with a contract awarded to Fortify Clinic Limited. Although the tender lot was eventually cancelled, the award was still active as of 1st May 2025.

Businesses operating in the health services industry, particularly those specialising in general surgery insourcing, could explore future opportunities for similar contracts, as the current tender highlights the demand for specialised health services within the regional authorities. Fortify Clinic Limited, an SME, was the chosen supplier, indicating that smaller enterprises with the right expertise stand a competitive chance in securing such contracts. Businesses should thus keep an eye on subsequent procurement needs from regional health authorities and prepare to present competitive bids, particularly those offering continuity of service and expertise in line with PSR regulations.
