## Summary

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, has conducted a limited procurement process for "D2RA Beds," a service aimed at facilitating the transfer of patients from acute hospital sites to community beds for assessment. The tender, now at the award stage, involves the procurement of nine beds with Abergarw Care Home Limited in Bridgend, UK, from 24th January 2025 to 30th April 2025. This initiative falls under the health category and is crucial to prevent risks to patient care and safety due to contract lapses. The contract was signed on 18th January 2025 for a value of £192,499.00.

This tender provides significant opportunities for care home providers and SMEs specializing in health services, particularly those capable of offering beds for patient assessments. Businesses that can ensure swift and efficient transitions for patients from acute care facilities to community settings would greatly benefit from engaging in similar procurement activities. The emphasis on time-critical procurement and expanding bed capacity highlights an immediate need for responsive and reliable healthcare service providers.
