Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Birmingham and Solihull Integrated Care Board has announced the award of contracts under the Enhanced Service Offer 2025/26 for the Solihull Rural Primary Care Network. This procurement process, which falls under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, focuses on general practitioner services aimed at improving access to primary care and life expectancy in Birmingham and Solihull. The contracts, valued between £76,446.32 and £249,389.16, have been awarded using a direct award process without prior publication, with service provision set from 1st September 2025 to 31st March 2026.

These awards, specific to the healthcare services industry, cover key clinical areas such as circulatory disease, infant mortality, respiratory illness, cancer, and mental health, aligning with the BSol Integrated Care Strategy 2023-2033. The primary care services will be delivered by local GP practices including Dorridge Surgery, Balsall Common and Meriden Group Practice, Arden Medical Centre, and Hampton Surgery, all located in the Solihull area of the UKG32 region. This procurement provides significant opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the healthcare sector, particularly those with experience in primary care service delivery.

By participating in regional healthcare development initiatives, SMEs can enhance their service offerings, contribute to local and national strategic objectives, and strengthen their positions within primary care networks. The contracts encourage collaboration at both practice and network levels, fostering a network-of-networks approach that supports shared leadership and solutions across the Birmingham and Solihull localities. SMEs that can align with the BSol Integrated Care Strategy's priority areas and demonstrate a track record of service excellence will find suitable growth opportunities in this framework.

The option for a 12-month contract extension presents further prospects for sustained engagement and contribution to local health improvement initiatives.
