Insourced Paediatric Orthotics Service
Buyer: University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust →
What is being bought
Insourcing of Paediatric Orthotics Service to UHBW. This contract was awarded under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) Direct Award process C, in order to award a 3 year contract with a further optional 12 month extension, of the Bristol Paediatric Orthotics contract to Blatchford Ltd. Blatchford are the incumbent supplier and have been supplying the service satisfactorily since 2015. The most recent contract lapsed in December 2022 and a short term extension was put in place to ensure continuity of service until the end of the March 2024. The service has successfully operated under the same Terms and Conditions since it was extended and we are confident that Blatchford will continue to provide a satisfactory service to a sufficient standard going forward.

Comparable-procurement analytics
Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Orthotic services (85111600); 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 set | Procedures | Reported bids per procedure | Named award suppliers | Price evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Market: CPV division 85 | 35,421 | 1 median · 21 average (20,793 of 35,421 with a bid count) | 1.8 average (22,322 of 35,421 with named award suppliers) | 10 comparable price pairs |
| Same buyer | 1 | 1 median · 1 average (1 of 1 with a bid count) | 1 average (1 of 1 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
“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.
