Outsourcing of Orthopaedic Procedures (Hips and Knees)

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, has confirmed the award of a contract for the 'Outsourcing of Orthopaedic Procedures (Hips and Knees)' under the Provider Selection Regime Wales (PSR Wales). This contract, which falls outside the scope of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, will span from 20th October 2025 to 31st March 2027. This marks the procurement stage of contract award post-competition on a framework agreement.

The efforts are concentrated in the health services industry, specifically with delivery in the region of UKL14. The award update was published on the 24th of October 2025, following the intended notice dating back to the 24th of September 2025. 50 GBP.

This procurement provides significant opportunities for businesses specialised in healthcare and orthopaedic surgeries, as it enlists services for crucial medical procedures. Firms with capabilities in delivering efficient and high-quality healthcare, particularly in orthopaedic solutions, would find themselves well-suited to benefit. Large-scale health organisations like Circle Health Group Limited, identified as the successful provider, illustrate that the competition was keen on high-quality offerings with technical and social value considerations.

The opportunity leverages limited procurement methods, offering a strategic chance for businesses capable of accessing framework agreements to expand their markets within public health sectors across Wales.
