Provision of Insourced and Outsourced Clinical Services Framework (Framework Reopening)

The aim of this Framework is to provide Relevant Authorities with fully compliant solutions which supplement the delivery of patient care by Relevant Authorities in line with the NHS' core Key Performance Indicators and standards.

The Framework has two Lots.

Lot 1 Insourced Clinical Services

Lot 2 Outsourced Clinical Services

Insourced Services are clinical services which are delivered on the premises of the contracting Relevant Authority and may use that organisation's equipment.

Outsourced Services are clinical services which are delivered on premises owned or operated by the Provider.

Insourced and Outsourced Services will include the full range of Surgical and Medical specialties and sub-specialties. The specialties and sub-specialties are those listed by the various Surgical and Medical Royal Colleges.

This is a Framework under The Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 and The Health Services (Provider Selection Regime) (Wales) Regulations 2025. In accordance with Regulation 17 of The Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 and Regulation 17 of The Health Services (Provider Selection Regime) (Wales) Regulations 2025, the Framework will be open to applications from new potential Providers during the Term of the Framework.

Previously appointed Providers are NOT obliged to re-apply.

Further 'Intention to Award' notices will be published as and when new Providers are appointed.
