Summary, notice description and lot information
The NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board has completed a procurement process for pharmacy local enhanced services in Rotherham, with the contract awarded to Green Arbour Pharmacy. This process falls under the "services" industry category and was conducted under the Provider Selection Regime, governed by Health Care Services Regulations 2023, not the Procurement Act 2023. The procurement stage is the award, with the contract running from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026.
The service involves delivering locally enhanced services alongside the Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework, essential for serving the Rotherham population. The contract was awarded through a direct award procedure without prior publication, confirming the services' nature as existing and ongoing. This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for pharmacies capable of executing enhanced services under the Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework, like Green Arbour Pharmacy.
It suits established pharmacy providers already delivering local services, enabling them to expand their service offerings in alignment with patient quality and choice without the pressure of price competition. The contractual obligation is based on patient activity, offering flexibility and potential revenue depending on local demand. Pharmacies experienced in healthcare delivery under public law governance, specifically in pharmacy services, would be best suited to compete in similar future opportunities.
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 of the 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 as it is based on patient activity.
