## Summary

Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust has concluded a procurement process for Specialist, Clinical and Diagnostic Services under the health and social work services category. The procurement concerns the provision of Cardio Respiratory, ECG, Radiology, and Pathology Services for its patients, with Mersey and West Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust being awarded the contract. The contract is valued at approximately £166,154 and spans a 12-month period starting from 1st April 2025. Located in Merseyside, UK (region UKD7), this contract was awarded through a limited procurement method based on the Direct Award Process A, indicating no realistic alternative provider for the services.

This tender provides opportunities for businesses engaged in healthcare services, especially in specialist clinical and diagnostic sectors, to explore future collaborations or deliveries with NHS Trusts. Large-scale organisations, similar to Mersey and West Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, could potentially leverage such contracts to build strategic relationships and expand their healthcare service provision capabilities. The absence of a competitive bidding process in this case highlights the potential for businesses that can offer unique or highly specialised services in a specific geographic location.
