## Summary

Cardiff and Vale University Health Board bought insourced non-obstetric radiology ultrasound clinics to support diagnostic capacity and manage waiting lists. The service combines qualified sonographers, healthcare assistants and ultrasound equipment, with clinics delivered at the University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff. This is a healthcare service rather than a purchase of equipment alone: suppliers need to provide clinical staff and the equipment needed to run ultrasound clinics. The requirement concerns hospital medical services and diagnostic imaging, and is specific to non-obstetric ultrasound. The Health Board is the buyer and the service supports its hospital-based diagnostic provision.

The process is recorded as awarded, with MEDISERVICES HEALTHCARE LTD selected and an active contract. The contract was signed on 9 October 2026 and is valued at £375,000. The intended contract value was also stated as £375,000; a ceiling value recorded for the contract at entry in 2022 was £400,000. The procurement used the Provider Selection Regime Wales Direct Award Process 2, without a prior call for competition. The stated rationale was service continuity, avoiding mobilisation risks and preserving access to diagnostic capacity while retaining existing competitive pricing. The notice identifies service continuity and the absence of quality, performance or management concerns as key considerations; the lot records price as its award criterion.

For suppliers seeking comparable work with Cardiff and Vale University Health Board, this award demonstrates demand for non-obstetric ultrasound clinics delivered as an insourced service. A credible provider would need to supply qualified sonographers, healthcare assistants and ultrasound equipment, and demonstrate the ability to sustain diagnostic capacity while supporting waiting-list management. Service continuity mattered in the selection rationale, with avoiding mobilisation risks a stated concern; experience maintaining an established clinical service and managing a reliable transition would therefore be relevant capabilities. The stated criteria also point to the importance of competitive pricing and a record free of quality, performance or management concerns. The selected supplier is identified as an SME, indicating that a smaller provider was able to meet this requirement.
