## Summary

The Newcastle Upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has awarded a contract for the Mobile CT Lung Screening Service, falling under the industry category of Medical Imaging Services (CPV 85150000-5). The awarded contract, valued at £375,300, was granted to Cobalt Health under the PSR Direct Award Process C. The contract is set to commence on 1 April 2026 and conclude on 30 September 2026, covering locations within the UKC22 region. The procurement process was managed through a limited method, specifically an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, according to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The current procurement stage is complete, with no conflicts of interest recorded.

This contract offers a six-month opportunity for Cobalt Health and underscores significant business growth potential in the medical imaging sector, particularly for enterprises focusing on health services. Given the nature of the contract, businesses with expertise in mobile health screening and imaging technologies, and those emphasising quality, innovation, and social value, stand well-suited to engage in similar opportunities. SMEs with a comprehensive understanding of providing integrated and sustainable services, while improving healthcare access and reducing inequalities, may find similar opportunities advantageous in future procurement cycles. The award also reflects the trust's preference, increasing future opportunities for competent providers in the region should the services continue to be outsourced beyond October 2026.
