One Connected Route. Stronger Outcomes. Clearer Progress
HealthTrust Europe (HTE) and Pagabo have announced a new strategic partnership that brings together two trusted public sector procurement specialists to create one connected route across operational procurement and capital delivery.
The partnership is designed to give NHS organisations and Local Authorities a clearer, more assured pathway from requirement through to compliant procurement and delivery, helping overstretched teams move with greater speed, confidence, clarity and control.
A Unified Pathway To Stronger Outcomes
Public sector teams often face fragmented routes across operational spend, estates, infrastructure and capital projects. By uniting HTE’s NHS‑grade commercial governance, category leadership and managed procurement services with Pagabo’s construction, consultancy and capital delivery expertise, the partnership:
- Simplifies complex procurement landscapes
- Reduces administrative burden for stretched teams
- Strengthens assurance, compliance and delivery confidence
- Connects operational procurement with capital project pathways
- Expands access to a broader, integrated supplier ecosystem – including regional SMEs
This means organisations can move from requirement to delivery faster, more transparently and with stronger governance.
Supporting NHS And Local Government Priorities
The joint proposition is built intentionally for both NHS and Local Government sectors:
For NHS Organisations
- Offers an integrated route for both operational procurement and capital projects
- Strengthens governance, auditability and commercial assurance
- Supports Trusts, ICBs and estates teams facing capacity pressures
- Helps accelerate progress in clinical, digital, infrastructure and decarbonisation programmes
For Local Authorities
- Provides compliant, assured routes across goods, services and capital delivery
- Helps councils navigate budget pressure, transformation agendas and statutory responsibilities
- Supports regeneration, infrastructure, decarbonisation and community impact
- Enables access to a wider, transparent and competitive supplier base
A Partnership Focused On Long‑Term Value
Social value and sustainability are designed in, not added on.
Together, HTE and Pagabo will help public sector organisations deliver:
- Local supply chain growth
- Job creation, skills development and apprenticeships
- Measured social impact using digital tools
- Alignment to net‑zero and long‑term community benefit
The combined capability creates a holistic, outcomes‑focused offer for organisations looking to strengthen performance and improve the lives of patients, residents and communities.
Leadership Commentary
Gary Welch, Chief Executive Officer at HealthTrust Europe, said:
“This partnership brings together two complementary strengths to create a single, connected route that helps NHS organisations and Local Authorities buy with confidence and deliver with impact. By combining HTE’s procurement expertise with Pagabo’s capital delivery capability and digital innovation, we are strengthening assurance, accelerating outcomes and supporting better long‑term value for the communities we serve.”
Jason Stapley, Chief Procurement Officer at Pagabo, said:
“Local Government and NHS teams are under significant pressure to deliver outcomes quickly, efficiently and transparently. Working with HealthTrust Europe allows us to offer a simplified, assured pathway across operational and capital procurement – backed by strong governance, digital enablement and a diverse national and regional supplier base.”
About The Partnership
HTE and Pagabo remain independent organisations with their own brands, teams and governance.
This is a strategic partnership, not a merger – designed to enhance, not replace, the services both organisations offer.
Together, we are committed to providing the public sector with a joined‑up, clearer and more assured proposition that enables better outcomes for patients, residents and communities.
