## Summary

NHS England is buying NHS vaccination and immunisation services: opportunistic vaccinations, primarily influenza, for inpatients in intermediate care units in Cambridge and Peterborough. The work is delivered to patients who cannot access another provider while they are in these units, because of access restrictions and patient-safety requirements. The service is community healthcare. It concerns vaccinations for inpatients at these locations, rather than a general vaccination service. The notice describes the selected provider as the existing provider of the relevant healthcare services and says the nature of delivery means only that provider can provide this service. The procurement is managed by NHS England.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Cambridge and Peterborough Foundation Trust. The award decision was made on 22 September 2026 under Direct Award Process A of the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, without a call for competition. The contract was signed on 22 September 2026 and is valued at £10,000. It runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2028, with an option to extend for a further 12 months. There is one lot. The stated evaluation gave 100% weight to there being no realistic alternative provider and 0% to cost. The notice says no conflicts of interest were declared.

For suppliers considering similar work for NHS England, this award shows demand for opportunistic inpatient vaccinations, primarily influenza, delivered within intermediate care units. A credible provider would need the ability to reach inpatients at the relevant locations and work within the units’ access restrictions and patient-safety requirements. The buyer’s stated rationale was that patients are restricted to the location while receiving care and that no other provider could deliver the service there; an alternative supplier would therefore need to demonstrate how it could meet those delivery constraints. The award was made on the basis that there was no realistic alternative provider, rather than on cost. Relevant capability is consequently tied to safe, location-based delivery to inpatients and integration with the care setting, rather than vaccination capacity alone.
