## Summary

The Queen Elizabeth Hospital King's Lynn NHS Foundation Trust recently conducted a public procurement process for medical hospital services focusing on non-obstetric ultrasound insourcing, aimed at reducing a patient backlog. The procurement was governed by the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. Initially announced as a contract award under the PSR framework, with the process commencing from 25th July 2025 to 6th August 2025, it was later confirmed that the process had been abandoned without a contract being formally awarded. Outpatient Network NOUS was designed as a service project with operations planned in Kings Lynn, within the UKH16 region.

While the procurement process did not culminate in a contract award, it underscored the demand for medical service providers specialising in non-obstetric ultrasounds. Businesses in the healthcare industry, particularly those experienced in service provision and capable of operating under short timescales and budget constraints, are well-suited for similar future opportunities. Such tenders present significant growth prospects for medical SMEs like Outpatient Network Limited, which could effectively cater to medical institutions seeking efficient solutions to service backlogs.
