## Summary

The Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is in the final stages of awarding a service contract under the Provider Selection Regime regulations, specifically for cervical screening sample collection and distribution of consumables services. The contract is intended to be awarded to West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust without prior publication of a tender call, making use of a Direct Award Process. The services are intended to support NHS GP practices in East of England, specifically local to the West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust. The contract, which is valued at £18,490.50, is set to commence on 1st July 2026 and continue until 31st March 2028, with a potential one-year extension. While the contract is yet to be formally awarded, the standstill period is active until the 23rd of July 2026.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for existing service providers in medical laboratory services, particularly those specializing in the logistics of healthcare services delivery such as the transportation of medical samples. While the contract aims at providing continuity by selecting an existing provider, businesses capable of offering similar services in neighbouring regions could position themselves for future procurement processes. Large-scale companies with a presence in the UK and the ability to handle significant contracts within the healthcare sector would find competing in such tenders plausible and potentially rewarding. The specific focus on cervical screening services aligns with ongoing public health initiatives, making it a strategically valuable contract for businesses in this industry.
