## Summary

The contract for "Anaesthesia and Recovery" services, specifically focusing on ECT treatments, has been awarded by Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust to Mersey and West Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. This procurement falls under the Health and Social Work Services category, with a value of approximately £214,665. The contract began on 1st April 2025 and is set for a duration of 12 months, located in Merseyside, United Kingdom. The procurement method was limited, following a Direct Award Process with no realistic alternative provider due to the specific nature of the services, and it is now in the award stage, marking the completion of the tender process.

This tender can foster business growth for organisations that specialise in healthcare services, particularly those with expertise in anaesthesia and recovery processes. While the procurement is structured as a direct award with an existing service provider, businesses within the industry can explore similar opportunities or consider partnerships with large-scale trusts like Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust. Engaging with such contracts suggests a strong possibility for expansion within public health and social services sectors, where quality and service-specific knowledge are critical for meeting procurement criteria.
