## Summary

The Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has completed a procurement process titled "Palliative Care Support from BWCNFT to GHFT," focusing on the health industry, specifically for the supply services of medical personnel. This procurement process, which falls under the Provider Selection Regime, was awarded on 25th November 2025. The process was carried out using a limited procurement method, allowing for a direct award outside the regular scope of the 2015 Public Contracts Regulations. The contract, valued at approximately £19,400 per annum, was awarded to Birmingham Women’s and Children’s NHS Foundation Trust to provide out-of-hours palliative care support, covering the period from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026 in the UKK13 region.

This contract offers substantial opportunities for businesses operating in the healthcare sector, particularly those specialising in medical staffing and palliative care services. Organisations capable of providing specialist medical personnel can find similar opportunities for growth and partnership with healthcare providers through such direct awards. The limited procurement method indicates a focus on targeted, expertise-driven service provision, which is beneficial for specialised small to medium enterprises (SMEs) like the awarded Birmingham Women’s and Children’s NHS Foundation Trust. This specialised nature of procurement encourages businesses to maintain high competence and quality service delivery, thus fostering a competitive edge in the healthcare market.
