NHS SY ICB - Doncaster Place - Frances Street Medical Centre - GP LES

NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board has concluded the contract award process under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 for the provision of local enhanced services at Frances Street Medical Centre in Doncaster. The procurement falls outside the scope of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The contract, aimed at improving integrated primary care services for the Doncaster population, will run from 1 April 2024 to 31 March 2026.

This contract was directly awarded under a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition due to the absence of realistic alternative providers. This contract presents growth opportunities for businesses in the healthcare sector, particularly smaller enterprises involved in primary care services. By integrating additional primary care contracts with enhanced service delivery, providers can expand their service offerings and client base in the Doncaster area.

The Frances Street Medical Centre, identified as a small and medium-sized enterprise (SME), serves as the awarded provider, signalling potential for other SMEs specialising in healthcare services to engage in similar procurement opportunities in the future.
