Summary of the contracting process
The NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board is set to award a contract to Clemitsons Ltd for health services involving food thickening, stocking palliative drugs, and flu antivirals. This contract will be executed under the Direct Award Process A as stipulated by the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) regulations 2023.
The procurement stage is currently at the 'Award' stage, with the contract anticipated to start on 1st April 2025 and conclude on 31st March 2026, covering services in the UKC region. The award process is relatively specialised, bypassing traditional competitive procurement due to the absence of a realistic alternative provider, thus employing a 'limited' procurement approach.
Enterprises specialising in activity-based health contracts or those with an existing service history in similar niches will be well-positioned to adapt to the contract's scope, given the procurement stems from ongoing service delivery by an existing provider.
