The procurement process will utilise the Most Suitable Provider (MSP) approach under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, focusing on gynaecological hospital services. Intended to address the high demand exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic, the services are expected to start providing additional capacity by 31st March 2026 in Liverpool (region UKD72). Interested providers have until 6th November 2025 to express their interest, with the procurement category classified under services and the process being exempt from the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. This tender offers significant opportunities for independent healthcare providers with expertise in gynaecology services to grow their business by collaborating with a reputed NHS Foundation Trust. Firms capable of delivering up to 2,600 outpatient appointments and 500 surgical procedures along with administrative support will be well-suited to compete. Given the contract's scope, businesses focusing on healthcare service expansion or looking to establish a substantial foothold in the Liverpool healthcare sector will find this opportunity particularly beneficial. This involvement not only allows providers to enhance service delivery but also potentially strengthens long-term partnerships within the NHS network. ## Notice This is an Intended Approach Notice to follow the Most Suitable Provider (MSP) Process under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR).

Liverpool Women's Hospital NHS Foundation Trust requires additional outsourced outpatient clinic and theatre capacity to increase overall capacity for General Gynaecology services. Extremely high demand, driven by the unprecedented backlog created during the Covid-19 pandemic and internal staff capacity issues, is resulting in severe delays for routine care. To meet a proportion of this demand, it has been proposed to procure additional capacity from an independent provider via an outsourced model. The contracted services are anticipated to provide an initial capacity increase of up to 2600 outpatient appointments, including any diagnostic management and 500 surgical procedures. It will also be the responsibility of the outsourced provide to provider the administration wrap around. This capacity needs to be provided by the 31st of March 2026; it is the responsibility of the provider to put a delivery model in place for this activity. Further activity beyond this date will be issued in due course subject to internal funding sign off. All activity will remain LWH activity, with the external provider holding responsibility for seeing and treating the patient only. Activity will be recorded on LWH systems for activity recording and charging purposed. Any provider will be expected to provide LWH, on a weekly basis, with a list of procedures completed, alongside patient level coding, to ensure accurate recording of patient episodes. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/062725-2025 | | Notice type | Planning Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 7 Oct 2025 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 6 Nov 2025 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planned | | Lots status | Planned | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LIVERPOOL WOMEN'S NHS FOUNDATION TRUST | | Locality | LIVERPOOL | | Post town | Liverpool | | Postcode | L8 7SS | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD7 Merseyside | | ITL 3 | TLD72 Liverpool | | Local authority | Liverpool | | Electoral ward | Canning | | Westminster constituency | Liverpool Riverside | | Delivery location | TLD72 Liverpool | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85111300 - Gynaecological hospital services ## Release History - 7 Oct 2025 at 08:58 - Planning - Planning Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/062725-2025 ## Notice URLs - https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome - https://www.liverpoolwomens.nhs.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
