## Summary

The procurement process undertaken by NHS Highland involved the tender for the "Provision of Single Reception Service" at the new Badenoch and Strathspey Community Hospital located in Aviemore, UK. This project classifies under the health category and is critical for the effective operation of a multi-tenanted facility. The procurement method used was a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, with the contract value set at £92,624. The contract was signed on 17 March 2021, and the service is intended to operate Monday to Friday from 08:00 to 18:00, excluding public holidays.

This tender represents a growth opportunity primarily for businesses in the healthcare services sector, particularly those capable of providing reception services in a medical context. Given the unique nature of the service requirement that necessitated a single supplier due to the specific design and footfall considerations of the new hospital, businesses with operational experience in similar environments or a strong relationship with NHS Highland would be particularly well-positioned to compete in future procurement processes of this nature.
