The Contractor will be responsible for the provision of a prosthetic and orthotic rehabilitation service at Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre (DMRC). DMRC uses an Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) approach to deliver comprehensive rehabilitation to the most severely injured SP within defence. One element of this IDT working is the provision of a prosthetic and orthotics service delivered on site. The unit has a purpose built prosthetics and orthotics department with clinical, administrative, manufacturing and workshop capabilities to facilitate the timely delivery of quality care in support of the rehabilitation pathways. This specialist capability shall be provided by an external contractor. The authority is seeking to tender for a 4 -year contract to start on 01 Apr 2027, with the option to extend up to 24 months. Service Requirement The service shall include: • Prosthetic provision post primary amputation, upper and lower limb, often with additional complex needs, • Management of established prosthetic users with complex needs and/or high level demands, • Care of patients with a range of complex orthopaedic, musculoskeletal and neurological conditions requiring orthotic devices. Services are delivered to both inpatients and outpatients on site to minimise timescales and maximise rehab potential. The Contractor shall supply a prosthetic and orthotic management IT system to facilitate service delivery. All staff will require a Disclosure and Barring Service Check and a security check through the National Security Vetting Service. The core hours of clinical delivery on the unit are 0800 – 1700 Monday to Thursday and 0800 – 1330 on a Friday. The provision of routine and emergency appointments will be within normal working hours, there is not an out of hours requirement. Surge Capability In the event of a significant increase in demand, the authority may invoke ‘surge capability’. The contractor will be required to provide additional prosthetist, orthotist and technician capacity within short timescales to manage the higher patient numbers to maintain the level of service and timely clinical delivery.

| Item | Category | Quantity |

| 1 | Orthopaedic prostheses, Rehabilitation hospital services, Orthotic services | Not published |
Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 33. The category anchor is Orthopaedic prostheses (33183200); 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 33 | 1,792 | 2 median · 104.8 average (601 of 1,792 with a bid count) | 6.3 average (698 of 1,792 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 3 | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| Delivery region: UKH | 60 | 2 median · 40.5 average (10 of 60 with a bid count) | 5.9 average (10 of 60 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.
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.
No planning milestones published.
No linked framework, prior procurement or reprocurement published.
