Public Health Primary Care Services

The Isle of Wight Council is in the planning stage of a procurement process for Public Health Primary Care Services, focusing on NHS Health Checks (NHSHC) and Long-Acting Reversible Contraception (LARC). This procurement falls under the industry category of community health services and is located in the South East of England. The council is currently seeking supplier feedback via a questionnaire available on ProContract, with responses due by 31 July 2025.

The total value of the services is estimated at GBP 2,693,697, with the procurement conducted under The Healthcare Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, using the direct award process. Services are expected to commence on 1 April 2026, with a contract period extending potentially until 31 March 2033. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in community health services, particularly those with experience in healthcare service provision to public bodies.

The engagement exercise is designed to refine service delivery methods, providing potential suppliers with an opportunity to influence the procurement strategy. Companies with capabilities in delivering efficient health checks and contraceptive services will find this opportunity particularly aligned with their strengths, with the potential to establish a long-term partnership with the Isle of Wight Council.
