## Summary

The North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board, a body governed by public law under the NHS, is awarding a contract for health services under the Direct Award Process A of the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) regulations 2023. This process is exempt from the Procurement Act 2023 and Procurement Regulations 2024. The contract, QHM-2025-8210, is with Hall Newton Trading Ltd and involves services related to food thickening and tuberculosis drugs. It is based in the UKC region, specifically Sunderland, and falls into the health services category under CPV 85100000. The process bypasses a competitive tender, employing a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition. The contract commences on 1st April 2025 and concludes on 31st March 2026, but services are already being delivered on an implied contract basis.

This procurement process offers specific growth opportunities for businesses in the healthcare services sector, particularly those with expertise in supplying food thickening and tuberculosis drugs. Companies experienced in NHS contracts and those capable of adhering to the specific regulatory framework of this direct award process will be well-positioned. However, as the contract was awarded through a limited method recognising Hall Newton Trading Ltd as the sole realistic provider, opportunities may exist for strategic partnerships or sub-contracting arrangements with the winning supplier. Businesses looking to expand within the UKC region can leverage this opportunity to strengthen their presence in the public healthcare market.
