Summary, notice description and lot information
The NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board, located in Sheffield, has awarded a contract for local enhanced pharmacy services specifically for the Rotherham area. The procurement process, identified as "Provider Selection Regime (PSR)" under the Health Care Services Regulations 2023, resulted in the awarding of the contract without a prior call for competition. This contract, awarded to Medwin Pharmacy, is designed to deliver services from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026.
The primary industry category of the procurement is pharmacy services, with a focus on enhancing the Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework (CPCF). The procurement method applied was a limited award procedure, and the key decision-maker in this process was the Director of Partnerships/Deputy Place Director at Rotherham Place. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in delivering pharmaceutical services, particularly those already engaged under the CPCF, to secure sustained service provision until 2026.
Such service providers, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like Medwin Pharmacy, already operating within or keen to expand into the Rotherham region can benefit. The contract relies on patient activity rather than a set financial commitment, allowing flexibility and potential growth in reimbursement. Businesses equipped to manage interdependent healthcare service delivery will find this opportunity aligned with industry demands for enhanced pharmacy roles in community health frameworks.
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/>The lifetime contract value is unknown as it is based on patient activity.<br/><br/>This contract has been awarded following the direct award process B.<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.
