## Summary

The NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board has concluded a procurement process for pharmacy services under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) regulations 2023. The contract, titled "QHM-2025-9422 Well Pharmacy," is intended for services within the UKC region. The contract, awarded through a Direct Award Process, commences on 1st April 2025 and concludes on 31st March 2026. The procurement category is services, specifically pharmacy services, and involves an activity-based approach without a guaranteed contract value. The formal award followed an update on 14th October 2025, signifying the transition from the standstill period, with representations previously required by midnight on 13th October 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in pharmaceutical services, particularly those capable of delivering contract-specific requirements under the PSR. Businesses with a strong track record in the healthcare service sector, like Well Pharmacy, which has been awarded the contract, would find this opportunity beneficial for growth. The process favoured suppliers who could demonstrate compliance with the PSR's five key criteria, making it suitable for well-established providers. Additionally, as the tender results from a limited procurement method, businesses familiar with NHS frameworks and regulations are best positioned to understand and align with the objectives and requirements of the contract, thus enabling potential growth and expansion within the sector.
