## Summary

The procurement process, led by NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board, culminated in the award of the "QHM-2025-8671 Coulby Medical Practice - Enhanced Services Contract" under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) regulations 2023. This contract, focusing on health services, specifically spirometry, was governed by the Direct Award Process A and fell outside standard procurement regulations. Despite the formal contract start date set for 1st April 2025, the services were already being rendered under an implied contract. The procurement method used was limited, with no prior publication of a call for competition, and the contract was signed on 1st October 2025. The primary location for contract delivery is the UKC region, and it covers the period until 31st March 2026. The total contract value is activity-based, thus not pre-defined. The contract was awarded to Coulby Medical Practice.

This tender represents a significant business growth opportunity for entities within the health services industry, particularly for those capable of providing specialised services such as spirometry. The limited procurement method and the absence of a competition call highlight potential for businesses that can uniquely address the procurement needs specified by the NHS body. While the initial contract value appears nominal, it is activity-based and may generate additional financial opportunities aligned with service delivery performances. Businesses with established credibility and experience in the healthcare domain, especially those familiar with the health service regulations in the UK, would find this contract well-suited to their capabilities.
