Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, initiated by NHS England, involved an urgent award for "Breast Cancer Screening support in South Essex" under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. This award was necessitated by unforeseen circumstances where the primary provider became unable to meet the full scope of services, leading to a backlog of patients.

InHealth Intelligence, an existing provider with significant capacity in the London region, was awarded the contract. The contract, valued at £180,000, was signed on 10th July 2025 and covers a period of four months from 15th September 2025, with a possible extension of up to eight weeks.
