## Summary

The public procurement process outlined in this document was conducted by the NHS Lancashire and South Cumbria Integrated Care Board. The contract, titled "Lancashire Review Health Assessment for Children in Care Service," falls under the industry category of health services. It specifically relates to providing review health assessments for children in care in the Lancashire region. The procurement method used was limited, described as an "award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition," and the process was completed under urgent circumstances as per the Provider Selection Regime Regulations 2023. The award was made to HCRG Care Group to ensure continuity of service, with the contract valued at £953,712. The contract period starts on 1st October 2025 and concludes on 30th September 2026, following the review and approval by the ICB's Acting CFO on 1st July 2025.

This tender presents a notable opportunity for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those with expertise in care services for young, vulnerable populations. Although the award process was conducted under exceptional circumstances and therefore limited to an existing provider, similar future opportunities may arise for other organisations with rapid and effective service delivery capabilities. Companies aiming to engage in public sector contracts, especially those with experience in working within integrated health systems and providing essential care without interruptions, would find such contracts beneficial for long-term growth and strengthening their foothold in the healthcare sector.
