Provision of Humber North Yorkshire Bowel Cancer Screening Programme (BCSP)
Overview
Summary, notice description and lot information
The Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust (HDFT) has successfully completed the procurement process for the provision of the Humber North Yorkshire Bowel Cancer Screening Programme (BCSP), focusing on gastroenterologist services. This contract, valued at £674,438, was awarded on 1st April 2025 under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) 2023 regulations, specifically for healthcare services. As the Lead Provider, HDFT is responsible for subcontracting to participating trusts, including York and Scarborough Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust (YSTHFT), which will deliver the services in the geographical areas covering Humber, North Yorkshire, and York.
The procurement method employed was a direct award without prior publication, as it falls outside the scope of the usual directive requirements. This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses involved in healthcare services, specifically within the field of gastroenterology. Large healthcare providers such as NHS Trusts are ideally positioned to take advantage of such opportunities, allowing them to expand their service delivery capabilities and participate in specialised programmes like BCSP.
The direct award method indicates a streamlined selection process, making it particularly attractive for organisations possessing the necessary credentials and region-specific capabilities to engage in this collaborative effort under NHS Public Health's jurisdiction.
The Bowel Cancer Screening Programme is commissioned by NHSE Public Health which offers screening to try and find signs of bowel cancer at an early stage when there are no symptoms. This is when treatment can can be more effective.
Programmes are commissioned within geographical areas, often with more than one NHS Trust being part of the Programme. The Humber, North Yorkshire and York aligned Programme consists of Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust (HDFT), Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust (LTHT) and York & Scarborough Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (YSTHFT), with HDFT being the Lead Provider.
This requires sub-contracts to the remaining Trusts.
The Programme can only be delivered by the nominated Trusts for patients registered to a GP in their area. YSTHFT will provide the services under NHS Public Health Functions 2025-26 - Service Specification No.26 Bowel Cancer Screening Programme.
This direct award is being made in relation to Direct Award process A under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) 2023.
This is a PSR confirmation of contract award notice. This contract has been awarded under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023.
For the avoidance of doubt, the provision of the Procurement Act 2024 do not apply to this award.
