AWARD OUTCOME

What happened

Published outcome

The contract record is active and states it was signed on 17 September 2026. It covers lot 1, for licensed fertility services, with a stated service period of 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027.

Market significance

This is a Provider Selection Regime Direct Award Process B arrangement for Right to Choose fertility care in the UKK11 area. The published contract value of £0.01 should not be interpreted as the commercial value because the notice explicitly says the activity-based contract has no guaranteed value.
