Summary, notice description and lot information

Summary of the contracting process

The NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board has awarded contracts for the North Tyneside & Northumberland Acute Respiratory Infection Hubs Winter 25/26 project. Under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, the contracts fall outside usual UK procurement regulations and were procured via a limited procedure due to urgent circumstances. The procurement category covers miscellaneous health services, specifically within North Tyneside and Northumberland (regions UKC21 and UKC22).

Contract awards were confirmed in November 2025, with the contract period estimated from October 2025 to March 2026. Contracts were awarded without a prior call for competition, following a review of service specifications and funding allocations to maintain service continuity. This procurement presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in healthcare services, especially those with the capability to respond swiftly under urgent conditions.

Providers with established operations in North Tyneside and Northumberland or those planning expansion in these regions would be particularly well-positioned to compete. The awarded suppliers include various Primary Care Networks and GP Federations, highlighting the potential for collaboration with large-scale healthcare organisations. The urgency and scope of this tender demonstrate the value of flexible service provision capabilities, making it appealing for established healthcare businesses looking to solidify or expand their regional presence.
