## Summary

The Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust, located in Frimley, United Kingdom, has concluded the awarding stage of its procurement process for an audiology service contract titled "FHFT- C- Audiology". This contract encompasses full audiology services across Frimley, Fleet, Farnham, and Aldershot, operating 48 clinics weekly, each lasting four hours. The procurement method employed was a direct award due to the unique technical reasons provided by the current supplier's experience and capacity. The contract, valued at £190,080, is set to commence on 6th April 2026 and span until 29th June 2026, with potential extensions available at the discretion of the Trust. Key deadlines include a milestone for signature scheduled for 1st March 2026.

This tender presents growth opportunities primarily for SMEs specialising in health services, particularly those with expertise in audiology and ENT support. Outpatient Network Limited, a supplier situated in Coventry, has been awarded this contract, and its existing relationship with the Trust and operational capabilities in providing weekend audiology services play to its strengths. Businesses with capabilities to run consistent and high-volume clinics and deliver technical audiology services may find similar future opportunities, particularly if they can demonstrate reliable performance and adaptability within the NHS framework.
