NHS SY ICB - Rotherham Place - Optometry Local Enhanced Services - Eye Street Opticians Ltd
Overview
Summary, notice description and lot information
The NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board has completed its procurement process for local enhanced optometry services in Rotherham. The contract for these services has been awarded to Eye Street Opticians Ltd as part of a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) confirmation. Governed by the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, this award falls outside the scope of the Procurement Act 2023.
The contract is set to run from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026 and covers the Main Procurement Category of services within the industry classification of optician services (CPV 85160000). This procurement occurred through a limited method, specifically using an award procedure without a prior publication of a call for competition. The contract is location-specific to Rotherham, and no financial value has been disclosed as it relies on patient activity.
This contract offers significant business opportunities for optometry providers capable of meeting the requirements of maintaining a General Ophthalmic Services contract. Businesses specialising in optician services and possessing existing capabilities in delivering local care services may find this contract especially lucrative, given the contract's reliance on patient activity. The procurement presents an advantageous scenario for established optometry practices already active in the Rotherham area, as it allows for service enhancement linked directly with patient volume.
This opportunity is perfectly aligned for SMEs, specifically those with a track record in integrating enhanced services alongside existing ones.
The provider is commissioned to deliver locally enhanced services for the Rotherham population.
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 (Optometrists) is because they are required to hold a General Ophthalmic Services (GOS) contract and deliver the LCS alongside these services; the LCS is designed to enhance the (GOS) contract and not stand alone, therefore, interdependency between the two services is paramount. For this reason not every Optometrist delivers every LCS.<br/><br/>This contract has been awarded following the direct award process B.<br/><br/>The lifetime value of the contract is unknow 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 as it is based on patient activity.
