## Summary

The NHS Central East Integrated Care Board (ICB) has announced its intention to award a contract for non-obstetric ultrasound services within Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. This process follows the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, bypassing the usual Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The contract, worth approximately £882,000 annually, starts on 1 April 2026 and runs until 31 March 2027. The procurement stage is currently at the award phase, marked by the start of the standstill period, during which representations must be submitted by 13 May 2026. This contract was recommended for approval by the ICB Board on 16 January 2026, and involves a direct award to an existing provider, with the status being complete under a limited procurement method without prior competition.

This tender presents an excellent growth opportunity for businesses in the healthcare sector, particularly those providing diagnostic services. The contract is a reoccurrence of existing services, ensuring consistency and reliability for the provider. Companies with expertise in health services, specifically in ultrasound diagnostics, can leverage these opportunities for expansion in the regional market. With NHS England overseeing potential changes in ICB structures, such providers could position themselves strategically, especially those already operating in the UKH12 region. However, as the award is limited and without prior competition, the opportunity is best suited to established providers with experience in repeat services under similar frameworks.
