## Summary

The public procurement process overseen by the NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board focuses on the "QHM-2025-9767 Local Enhanced Services" within the health services sector. This procurement has been carried out via the limited procurement method, specifically a Direct Award Process, as permitted by the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) regulations 2023. The contracting stage is complete, with the award having been granted on 1st October 2025. The services, which include population health management and various clinic-level services, are to commence on 1st April 2025 and conclude on 31st March 2026. The procurement is categorised under health services, specifically targeting the UKC region. Although this is an ongoing service provision by the existing supplier, Belford Medical Group, the contract notably carries a baseline value of £0.01, attributed to its activity-based nature.

For businesses within the health services industry, particularly those offering advanced management and specialised medical services, this procurement represents a niche yet significant opportunity for growth through direct collaboration with the NHS framework. Enterprises equipped with expertise in population health management and delivering community healthcare services would find themselves well-suited to meet the needs specified in this contract. While the current contract is awarded to an existing provider, understanding the intricacies of the Direct Award Process can prepare like-minded organisations for future opportunities to engage with procurement processes governed under similar regulatory frameworks.
