The contract, which started on 1st April 2025 and ends on 31st March 2026, is an existing service agreement with SSP Health GPMS Limited, marked by a limited procurement method without prior publication of competition. This tender creates business growth opportunities, especially for large health service providers who can fulfil the specialised service requirements outlined under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) regulations 2023. Due to the direct award nature and the selection rationale that emphasises the absence of realistic alternative providers, businesses with established competencies and a comprehensive understanding of regulatory frameworks are well-positioned to benefit from such opportunities.
