## Summary

The NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board is set to award a contract for the Kirkoswald Surgery Local Enhanced Services, classified under the health services sector. This direct award process, specifically under Health Care Services regulations 2023, involves no prior publication of a competitive call, focusing on areas like Near Patient Testing, Drug Monitoring, and Minor Injuries services. The contract, active from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026, is valued at a nominal £0.01, reflective of its activity-based nature without a guaranteed total contract value. The procurement process for this project was conducted without the constraints of the Procurement Act 2023 due to the direct award route chosen, signalling a 'Complete' status at this tender stage.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those with capabilities in providing enhanced or specialised medical services such as high-risk drug monitoring and injury treatment. Given the specifics of the awarding rationale, businesses that can demonstrate unique capability or geographical necessity may find enhanced considerations due to the absence of alternative providers. While existing providers have an advantage, new businesses with innovative or cost-effective solutions in these services areas might find partnership or subcontracting prospects. With the procurement managed under a direct award, insights into strategic health service delivery will likely benefit those involved in health infrastructure and service delivery in the North East and Cumbria regions.
