## Summary

The procurement process is being led by the Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust and is currently in the planning stage. The procurement concerns the provision of anaesthetic and associated services to supplement internal service capacity. This opportunity falls under the 'services' industry category, specifically targeting 'Surgical hospital services', with a gross budget of £180,000. Located in Leeds, United Kingdom, this market engagement is scheduled, with key dates including the preliminary market engagement notice published on 9th December 2025, an engagement milestone due by 2nd January 2026, and a further notice planned for 2nd February 2026. The contract, should it proceed, is expected to commence on 1st April 2026 and run until 30th September 2026.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for businesses specializing in medical and healthcare services, particularly those involved in surgical support and anaesthetics. Companies with expertise in supplementing hospital service provisions, capable of assembling full theatre teams or providing additional anaesthetic services, would be well-suited to compete.
