## Summary

Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust commissioned a consultant-led dermatology service for patients using East Cheshire’s dermatology service. The work covers outpatient clinics and a fully managed service, including both healthcare delivery and administrative support. Services are to be delivered in Cheshire East. The requirement is for clinical provision for East Cheshire patients, rather than equipment or construction, and combines specialist dermatology care with the operational support needed to run the service. The Trust is based at Leighton Hospital in Crewe.

The process has reached the award stage: Dermwise Limited was selected, and the contract is recorded as active. The stated award value is £125,000. The contract was signed on 24 September 2026; no separate contract end date or duration is recorded. The Trust used the Provider Selection Regime, specifically Direct Award C, through a limited award procedure without a prior competition. The notice described the award as an intention to award, with a representation deadline of 6 October 2026, while the contract data records it as active and signed. The stated evaluation basis was price. The procurement was organised as one lot, which is recorded as cancelled, although the associated award and contract are active.

This award indicates demand from Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for an integrated dermatology service serving East Cheshire patients. A credible provider for a comparable requirement would need consultant-led dermatology capability, the capacity to provide outpatient clinics, and the ability to manage healthcare delivery together with administrative support. Suppliers would need to demonstrate that they can meet patients’ immediate clinical needs and operate a service for the Trust’s local patient population. The selected supplier was a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that the work was delivered by an SME; this does not establish a size restriction for future providers. The procurement used the Provider Selection Regime’s Direct Award C route and assessed the stated award criterion of price, so competitors should be prepared to evidence both clinical service capability and a competitive cost proposition.
