## Summary

The East of England Community Health and Care NHS Trust has initiated a procurement process under the Provider Selection Regime for the provision of optometrist services, labelled as "Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust Optometry Services". This procurement is categorised under "Ophthalmologist services" and will be conducted primarily in Bedford and Luton at various healthcare sites. The procurement is currently at the award stage, having been concluded on 7th May 2026, and is designed to cover the period from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2027, with a potential extension until 31st March 2028. The contract, valued at £249,000 including the extension, utilises a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition, aligning with the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for growth to businesses specialising in healthcare services, particularly those providing optometric support. The specified locations, including Bedfordshire and Luton, UK, suggest a requirement for regional service delivery by providers familiar with the local healthcare environment. Entities with capabilities in supplying manpower such as Band 7 Optometrists would find this contract particularly suitable. Additionally, businesses that excel in adapting swiftly to pre-defined frameworks and have experience navigating regulations such as the PSR would be advantaged. Given the specialised nature of the contract and the direct award process used, providers with established reputations and capacities to deliver consistent healthcare services would find this opportunity commercially beneficial.
