## Summary

Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust procured hybrid mail services for itself and three partner organisations: University Hospitals Birmingham (UHB), the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital (ROH) and Birmingham Women’s and Children’s NHS Foundation Trust (BWC). Hybrid mail combines digital preparation and transmission of outgoing correspondence with physical printing and postal delivery, enabling the participating NHS organisations to send mail through a managed service. The award’s item classification is postal services (CPV 64110000). The named buyer is Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, while the service is described as supporting all four organisations. The contracting information does not identify a separate delivery address or location for the service.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. It was a competitive award under a framework, using a selective procedure, and was awarded to Synertec Limited on 8 October 2026. The contract was signed on that date. Its value is £550,000 excluding VAT (£666,000 including VAT). The contract runs from 8 October 2026 to 30 April 2028, with provision for two 12-month extensions and a maximum end date of 30 April 2030. The opportunity was structured as one lot, which is complete. The service was procured for Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, UHB, ROH and BWC. The published procurement information does not state the detailed award evaluation criteria.

For suppliers considering similar NHS hybrid-mail work, this award shows demand from a group of four Birmingham healthcare organisations, with a single provider delivering postal services through a framework. A credible competitor would need to manage outgoing correspondence across multiple NHS organisations and combine digital mail preparation and transmission with physical printing and postal delivery. The selected supplier was a large company, indicating that the arrangement was awarded to a supplier able to serve a multi-organisation requirement; the data does not set out specific certifications, technical standards or staffing requirements. The framework route and competitive award are relevant features for suppliers tracking comparable public-sector opportunities. Providers with experience coordinating high-volume business mail and supporting several institutional clients would be best placed to assess whether a similar requirement fits their operations.
