The procurement process, titled "Health Economist Support for AWTTC," was conducted by Cardiff and Vale University Health Board in collaboration with Bangor University. This contract falls under the services category, specifically business services related to law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing, and security, and is situated in Cardiff, Wales. The recent award was completed on 4th June 2026, following a tender initiation, with the contract period running from 11th May 2026 to 10th May 2027, with an option for renewal in one-year increments. The procurement was conducted directly, below the competition threshold, signifying its specific and exclusive nature, and without a competitive process due to the necessity of technical exclusivity and continuity.

This procurement presents robust growth opportunities for businesses specialising in health economics, particularly those with experience in pharmacoeconomics and health technology assessments. The nature of this contract requires a unique blend of expertise in health economic methodology, consistency in quality assurance, and strategic advisory capability, making it ideal for large-scale academic institutions or consultancies with a proven track record in the UK, particularly within Wales. Such contracts are pivotal for organizations aiming to establish or strengthen collaborative relationships with health boards and government bodies, providing not only financial growth but also enhancing reputational credibility by engaging in high-impact, nationally significant work. The opportunity for renewal also suggests long-term business prospects for entities able to meet the high standards set by the AWTTC and AWMSG.
