Lot details

Lot 1

The aim of the subcontracted services is to provide additional elective clinical capacity across Trauma and Orthopaedics, Urology, Plastics and General Surgery on an as and when required basis, in order to support the Head Provider's elective recovery programme, reduce waiting lists and improve timely access to care for patients who have chosen Mersey and West Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust as their provider. The subcontractor will deliver safe, effective and high-quality clinical services in accordance with agreed clinical pathways, applicable Trust policies, NHS Standard Contract requirements and relevant professional standards. Services will be delivered by appropriately qualified, competent and registered clinical staff, with appropriate clinical governance, information governance, safeguarding and escalation arrangements in place. The desired outcomes are to increase elective activity, reduce the number of patients waiting for treatment, support reduction in long-waiting patients, maintain safe clinical outcomes, improve patient experience, and ensure accurate and timely reporting of activity, quality and performance information to the Head Provider for contract management, commissioner reporting and assurance purposes.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Health and social work services (85000000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
