## Summary

The procurement process conducted by the NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board, titled "Springwood Surgery - Enhanced Services Contract" (QHM-2025-7312), has reached the award stage, with the contract being active from 1st October 2025. The contract falls under the health services industry and will be executed in the UKC region, covering diverse health service needs such as DVT and Spirometry. The process followed a Direct Award Process A under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) regulations 2023, bypassing the traditional competitive tendering due to its specific legal stipulations. The contract, set to commence on 1st April 2025 and conclude on 31st March 2026, supports existing services with no guaranteed contract value due to its dependency on service activity.

This tender represents a strategic opportunity for large-scale health service providers like Springwood Surgery, which successfully secured the contract due to its unique capability to deliver these specialised services with no realistic alternative provider identified. Businesses in the health care sector, particularly those capable of delivering niche services such as DVT and Spirometry, stand to benefit greatly from engagement in similar procurement processes. The limited procurement method underscores a preference for expert providers who can meet stringent service criteria and manage contracts based on service activity rather than fixed values, which could appeal to businesses seeking flexible and specialised contracting opportunities within the health sector.
