Gynaecological Services in a community setting

The procurement process in question involves the NHS Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care Board (ICB) awarding a contract for the provision of community-based gynaecological services, under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) by Wey Family Practice. The services focus on providing cost-effective gynaecological assessment and treatment within the community, aligning with the Health Care Services Regulations 2023. This contract, valued at approximately £43,631.44 over two years, runs from 1st April 2024 to 31st March 2026.

The procurement follows a limited procedure, bypassing the need for a call for competition, and was approved by the Surrey Heartlands ICB CCC Committee on 4th July 2024. The gynaecological services fall within the CPV category 85121210 and are based in the West Byfleet region, coded as UKJ25. This tender presents opportunities for similar providers or those considering entering the market with a strong local knowledge base and experience in community health services, particularly in women's health.

Businesses that can demonstrate quality and innovative service delivery, provide value for money, and integrate well into existing healthcare networks with a focus on reducing health inequalities would likely excel. Additionally, practices that emphasise sustainability and social value through local recruitment and infrastructure utilisation will be well-aligned with NHS priorities and could benefit from similar future procurement opportunities.
