## Summary

The NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board is set to award a contract for enhanced health services to Acklam Medical Centre under the Direct Award Process A, as outlined in the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) regulations 2023. This procurement falls under the health services category, specifically covering services such as DVT and spirometry. The contract, titled "QHM-2025-7644 Acklam Medical Centre - Enhanced Services Contract," will commence on 1st April 2025 and conclude on 31st March 2026. It involves a limited procurement method, with the award procedure conducted without prior publication of a call for competition. The procurement process has reached the award stage, and the location for service delivery is within the UKC region. Despite the nominal contract value listed as £0.01, this is due to the nature of the activity-based contract, with no guaranteed value, and services have already been delivered on an implied contract basis.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in healthcare services, particularly those capable of enhancing existing medical services such as DVT management and spirometry testing. Given that the procurement method does not invite open competition, it is ideal for established health service providers with proven capacity and expertise. Business growth could be realised through participation in similar contracts, fostering relationships with public health boards, and amplifying service offerings within regional healthcare frameworks. The nature of the contract makes it particularly suited to businesses adept at navigating direct award procedures and proficient in delivering specialised health services efficiently.
