About the buyer

NHS Lincolnshire Integrated Care Board commissions health and care services across Lincolnshire as the area's integrated care board. Procurement runs through the eTender portal, managed by NHS Arden and Greater East Midlands Commissioning Support Unit. Contract award notices are published through Contracts Finder. Clinical service contracts increasingly move through the Provider Selection Regime instead of a full competitive tender. Suppliers register with the Arden and Greater East Midlands procurement team to bid for live opportunities. The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 still govern procurement above the regulated thresholds.

UK health spending has nearly quadrupled to £241.8bn in 2024/25, £20bn up on the year before. £140.6bn of that went to procurement, the biggest sector of UK public spending and the fastest-growing.

Over the past 5 years, most of NHS Lincolnshire Integrated Care Board's contract awards have been in health and social work, public administration and defence and education and training.
