The NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board is set to award a contract titled "QHM-2025-7650 A85002 Bensham Family Practice GP Enhanced Services" under a direct award procedure. This contract, classified under the health services industry, covers a range of GP enhanced services and is located in the UKC region. The procurement process follows the Direct Award Process A under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) regulations 2023 and is outside the scope of the Procurement Act 2023.

Key dates include a contract start date of 1st April 2025 and an end date of 31st March 2026. The contract award stage of the procurement is complete as of 10th October 2025. This contract presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in healthcare services, particularly those providing GP enhanced services including PSA Monitoring, diabetes services, and osteoporosis care.

While the contract value is measured as an activity-based agreement with no guaranteed minimum, it favours providers who can demonstrate an ability to deliver a comprehensive suite of health services efficiently and without realistic alternative sources in the region. Large-scale service providers such as Bensham Family Practice, which is currently the awarded supplier, would find this tender advantageous, enhancing their service portfolio under an established agreement with the NHS. Businesses capable of delivering high-quality health services with robust regional ties would be well-suited to this procurement opportunity.
