Summary, notice description and lot information
The procurement process concerns the NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board's awarding of the "NHS South Yorkshire ICB Pharmacy LCS Contract 2025-26" to Singh's Medical Practice. This contract involves pharmacy services within the health care industry category, specifically targeting the Rotherham area (UKE3 region). As of September 2025, this contract is in the Award stage, under the scope of the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023.
The contract is valid from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026 and follows a direct award process without prior publication, indicating a "limited" procurement method. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in pharmacy services, especially those possessing the capabilities to deliver Locally Commissioned Services (LCS) alongside the Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework (CPCF). Given the interdependent nature of these services, businesses already familiar with national NHS payment structures and operations in the health care sector can leverage this contract to reinforce their market position and drive growth.
Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like Singh's Medical Practice may find such opportunities particularly advantageous, as they help in cementing relationships with NHS entities and expanding service offerings in local health care communities.
These contracts are awarded to an existing group of providers. Although we would not restrict the number of providers who deliver these LCS services provided they meet the contract and specification criteria, the primary reason that these services can only be delivered by this group of providers (pharmacy) is because they are required to hold a contract via the Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework (CPCF) and deliver the LCS alongside these services; the LCS is designed to enhance the (CPCF) contract and not stand alone, therefore, interdependency between the two services is paramount. For this reason not every Pharmacy delivers every LCS.<br/><br/>This contract has been awarded following the direct award process B.<br/><br/>The lifetime value for this contract is unknown as it is based on patient activity.<br/><br/>The contract will run from 01/04/2025 to 31/03/2026<br/><br/>This is an existing service with an existing provider. Additional information: The contract value is unknown. The provider is paid in line with the relevant unit prices for the activity delivered in accordance with the nationally mandated NHS Payment Scheme
