The primary focus is on pathology services, specifically centred in Keighley, UK (Region UKE41). The procurement falls under the services category and follows a limited method, specifically the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) as per the Health Care Services Regulations 2023. The process surpassed the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, opting for a non-competitive award to the most suitable provider. The award process began with an intention notice on 7th May 2026, and the contract was formally awarded on 20th May 2026, with an execution period from 20th May to 19th August 2026, extendable for up to two more three-month periods. This procurement opportunity paves the way for potential growth for businesses in the healthcare sector, particularly those specialising in pathology services and innovative diagnostic tools. As the tender utilised the PSR process, it was specifically suitable for a capable provider with the requisite expertise in delivering non-invasive medical tests. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) like A G Health, the awarded supplier, demonstrate the potential for expansion through delivering high-quality healthcare solutions and can use such contracts as a platform for building reputation and exploring further procurement opportunities within NHS frameworks and other healthcare-related procurement activities. ## Notice This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) confirmation of contract award notice.
