## Summary

The University of East Anglia procured palliative and end-of-life care expertise, described as a palliative care consultant at Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital. The requirement relates to specialist medical services, with associated research and nursing services also classified within the procurement. Delivery is in Norfolk, at the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. This is a focused clinical consultancy requirement serving the hospital’s palliative care work, rather than a broad healthcare staffing contract. The university is the buyer; the hospital trust is the organisation delivering the service. The work is relevant to providers able to supply specialist palliative care consultant services and operate in a hospital setting in the Norwich area.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. The University of East Anglia used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 16 September 2026 and runs from 17 September 2026 to 30 April 2031. Its stated gross value is £180,902.15. The process was arranged as one lot, and the contract is active. The published data does not give an award date separate from the signing date, so the signing date is the recorded outcome milestone. No evaluation criteria are set out in the procurement information.

For a future requirement of this kind, credible suppliers would need to provide palliative care consultancy capability suited to a hospital environment, with relevant specialist clinical expertise and the capacity to support the service over a sustained period. Familiarity with end-of-life care and coordination with hospital clinical teams would be pertinent to the stated requirement. The award went to a large NHS foundation trust, showing that the buyer selected an established healthcare provider to deliver the service through a direct, non-competitive route. Providers considering similar work for the University of East Anglia should therefore be prepared to demonstrate dependable delivery and appropriate clinical capacity in the Norwich area. The procurement also identifies associated research and nursing service classifications, though the stated requirement itself is a palliative care consultant.
