NHS South Yorkshire ICB - GP Locally Commissioned Services Contract - Deepcar Medical Centre

The procurement process for the GP Locally Commissioned Services Contract at Deepcar Medical Centre has reached its conclusion, with the contract formally awarded by NHS South Yorkshire ICB. The award falls under the Health Care Services Provider Selection Regime, 2023, exempt from the Procurement Act Regulations. Located in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, this contract pertains to general practitioner services, classified under the CPV code 85121100.

The procurement method involved a direct award process without prior publication, specifically not requiring a competitive call due to its nature. The contract was signed on 1st April 2025 and remains active from this date until 31st March 2026. Notably, no conflicts of interest were identified by the decision-making teams in July 2024.

The procurement stage is now in the award phase as of 23rd May 2025. This tender provides significant business growth opportunities, particularly for existing general practitioner service providers operating within the GP Framework, as it necessitates delivering services complementary to the framework. Given its unique setup, only providers capable of integrating these Locally Commissioned Services with the GP Framework contract can likely meet the specification requirements.

The awarded supplier, Deepcar Medical Centre, a small or medium-sized enterprise, highlights an opportunity for similar organisations to position themselves favourably in future direct award contracts. Such contracts facilitate sustainable growth by ensuring a fixed-term engagement with the NHS, emphasising the strategic alignment of services under government health initiatives.
