## Summary

The procurement process managed by James Paget University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust focused on the supply of blood and blood components under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR), as per the Health Care Services Regulations 2023. This contract, valued at £3,746,181, was awarded on 1st April 2025 to NHS Blood and Transplant without prior publication of a call for competition, utilising a 'limited' procurement method due to the absence of a realistic alternative provider. The procurement stage has reached completion, and the supply will service locations within the regions UKH14 and UKH15, specifically at James Paget University NHS Hospitals Foundation Trust. The project falls under the industry category of hospital and related services.

This tender creates significant opportunities for businesses capable of providing specialised health services, particularly those with capacity to offer high-quality hospital-related supplies and logistics. Firms experienced in healthcare supply chain management, especially those that can fulfil strict compliance and service quality standards without the need for open competition, would be particularly well-suited to such opportunities. The contract, awarded directly due to the unique service requirements, exemplifies potential growth and engagement in specialised NHS service contracts for large-scale healthcare suppliers. This emphasises the beneficial position held by entities prepared to meet unique public health needs efficiently and effectively.
