NHS SBS have extended the deadline for submissions for this opportunity. We are unable to amend the Discovery Posting due to technical issues and therefore have created a new link to allow bidders who may not have expressed an interest to date an opportunity to bid. The requirements under the original tender remain the same and this link takes bidders to the identical documents relating to the Insourcing of Clinical Services opportunity.
