## Summary

The Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is set to establish a framework agreement for the provision of falls prevention, rehabilitation, and recovery services under the Health and Social Work Services category (CPV 85000000), covering various regions across the UK, including England and Wales. This procurement process is being conducted under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, with a framework value estimated at £17,000,000. The competitive process, which falls under an open procurement method, has recently concluded with Pure Physiotherapy being confirmed for Lot 1, following the finalization of a standstill period. The aim of this framework is to provide compliant solutions that align with the NHS's key performance indicators, with a total framework duration of four years.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specializing in healthcare services, particularly those focused on preventative care and rehabilitation. The framework's flexible terms allow for new providers to join during its term, making it an attractive option for SMEs and established firms looking to expand their reach within the NHS supply chain. Service providers with capabilities in enhancing patient care, delivering innovative solutions, and promoting sustainable healthcare practices stand to benefit greatly. Moreover, businesses that value social impact, quality, and innovation have competitive advantages, as these criteria form the basis for success in the selection process. The framework's comprehensive structure, including lots on falls prevention, post-fall rehabilitation, and integrated care services, means diverse business entities can find multiple entry points based on their specialisms.
