Summary, notice description and lot information
The NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board has awarded a contract for Optometry Local Enhanced Services under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. This direct award has been granted to Harveys Opticians and will span from 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2026. The awarded services focus on enhancing General Ophthalmic Services for the Rotherham region, enabling locally enhanced healthcare provisions.
The procurement is classified under the CPV code 85160000 for optician services and falls under the services category with a limited procurement method, which bypasses the typical call for competition due to its specific regulatory framework. This tender represents significant potential for business expansion within the optometry sector, specifically for existing optometrists who hold a General Ophthalmic Services contract and are interested in enhancing community healthcare services. The contract's emphasis on integrated service delivery means that businesses focusing on innovative and quality-driven healthcare services could benefit most.
This opportunity would be ideal for those firms interested in strengthening their presence in the healthcare market by delivering interdependent services that support public health objectives in South Yorkshire.
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/>The 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 01/04/205 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.
