## Summary

The NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board is overseeing a public procurement process for a contract titled "QHM-2025-11988 North Cumbria Primary Care - James Street Group Practice - Local Enhanced Service" within the health services industry category. This procurement process is specifically for services related to Near Patient Testing, Warfarin Monitoring, Hormonal Injection Administration, and Minor Injuries. Located in the United Kingdom's UKC region, this contract spans from 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2026, with the procurement reaching the award stage. The contract was awarded via the Direct Award Process A under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) regulations of 2023, circumventing typical procurement regulations. A key detail is the contract's low nominal value but note that services are activity-based with no guaranteed contract value.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in high-risk patient testing services and other similar health care provisions to collaborate with North Cumbria Primary Care. The contract is designed without prior competition, indicating a very limited pool of capable service providers, most likely due to the specialised nature of the services. While the existing provider status is maintained, businesses that can offer innovative and efficient health care solutions, particularly in monitoring and administration services, could find opportunities for engagement. This unique setting provides a platform for institutions poised to address niche health care needs while fostering growth in the health sector.
