Summary of the contracting process
The NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board has awarded a contract to Whitworth Chemists Ltd, under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, for delivering pharmacy services focused on locally enhanced services for the Rotherham population. The procurement process was completed with a direct award method, bypassing the traditional call for competition, due to its classification outside the Procurement Act 2023.
This contract, classified under the services industry with the CPV code 85149000, will run from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026 in Rotherham, South Yorkshire. Despite its completion, the lifelong value of the contract remains flexible, being determined by patient activity levels rather than a fixed amount. The existing structure favours well-established pharmacy groups with the capability to integrate these dual contractual obligations effectively.

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.
This contract has been awarded following the direct award process B.
The lifetime value for this contract is unknown as it is based on patient activity.
The contract will run from 01/04/2025 to 31/03/2026
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
