Summary, notice description and lot information
The procurement process is conducted by the NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board, focusing on "Optometry Local Enhanced Services 2025/26" in the health care services industry. This award underlines the contractual relationship with Boots Opticians Professional Services Limited, which will deliver services in Rotherham under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR). Governed by the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, the contract is active and operates from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026.
This direct award process, bypassing a call for competition, forms a limited procurement method without prior publication, suitable for health care service enhancements. Such tenders present business growth opportunities for large health service providers, particularly those holding a General Ophthalmic Services (GOS) contract, allowing them to integrate additional local enhanced services. This contract reinforces collaboration and interdependency with existing services, ensuring service continuity and fulfilment of NHS’s structured health care approach in specific locales like Rotherham.
Businesses that align with such strategies and hold the necessary qualifications stand to benefit from engaging in partnerships under similar contractual 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 (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 direst award process B.<br/><br/>The 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 contract with an existing provider. Additional information: The contract value is unknown. The provider is paid in line with the relevant unit prices for the activity delivered in accordance with the nationally mandated NHS Payment Scheme.
