## Summary

NHS Highland procured non-obstetric ultrasound services for delivery in Inverness and the surrounding NHS Highland area. The requirement covers clinical ultrasound work that is not related to obstetrics, supporting the health service’s diagnostic activity. It is a healthcare service rather than a supply of equipment or construction work. The procurement was made under the Insourcing of Clinical Services Framework Agreement (reference SBS10203), indicating a requirement for an established provider able to supply clinical capacity within an NHS setting. The buyer is NHS Highland, based in Inverness. The service was arranged as a single requirement under the title HH355-25-SBS Non Obstetric Ultrasound Work, with NHS Highland as the contracting authority and service user.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used an open procedure under the Insourcing of Clinical Services Framework Agreement. One supplier submitted a bid, and Medicare Insourcing Services Ltd was awarded the requirement. The contract was signed on 1 October 2025 and is recorded as active. Its value is £65,780. The award covered the single non-obstetric ultrasound requirement. The published outcome records one bid, with no bids from small or medium-sized enterprises and one bid from outside the European Union. The available award information identifies the selected supplier and contract value, but does not provide a separate award date or a stated contract end date.

This award demonstrates NHS Highland demand for outsourced non-obstetric ultrasound capacity through a clinical services framework. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to deliver diagnostic ultrasound services reliably in an NHS environment, with the clinical workforce, equipment access, governance and operational capacity to provide the service in Inverness and the surrounding area. Experience of insourcing clinical services and working within public healthcare processes would be directly relevant. The single bid and award to a large specialist provider indicate that the requirement attracted a focused field of competition, rather than broad general healthcare suppliers. Providers able to demonstrate dependable clinical delivery, suitable ultrasound capability and the ability to mobilise services for NHS Highland would be best placed when this type of requirement is next considered.
