Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Arden and Greater East Midlands Commissioning Support Unit has successfully completed a tender process for Audiology and Community Micro-suction Services in the health services industry. This procurement, initiated on 7th November 2019, consists of two service lots: Lot 1, which focuses on Adult Hearing Services for Age Related Hearing Loss, and Lot 2, which introduces a new Community Micro-suction service. The contract is set to span from 1st May 2019 to 31st March 2022, with the procurement method designated as "Other". The tender period concluded on 19th February 2019, with the duration of contracts awarded specific to each service lot.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for healthcare providers specialising in audiology and community health services, particularly those capable of offering adult hearing assessments and community-based micro-suction procedures. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community sector enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to explore participation, especially given the re-opening nature of Lot 1, which allows previously successful bidders another chance to contribute to improving health services for adults over 55 years old. Firms interested in this field should consider leveraging their expertise in patient-focused services to enhance their competitiveness in future tenders.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Audiology and Community Micro-suction Services

Notice Description

NHS South Warwickshire CCG have completed an Any Qualified Provider (AQP) Process for the following services: - Lot 1 - Adult Hearing Service for Age Related Hearing Loss - Lot 2 - Community Micro-suction services Lot 1, for Adult Hearing Services for Age Related Hearing Loss was a re-opening of the existing Adult Hearing Loss Service AQP. Providers who had previously applied, and been successful for, this service need not apply.The CCG re-opened the existing AQP in order to secure additional capacity across the market. The service is aimed at adults aged 55 and over experiencing difficulties with their hearing and communication where a GP considers they may benefit from hearing assessment and care. It provides a comprehensive service user-centred direct access hearing service. Lot 2, for Community Micro-suction services is a new requirement which is closely related to the Adult Hearing Service requirement. The intention of the Commissioner was, therefore, to procure both requirements making use of a single procurement vehicle. The micro-suction service provides community based wax removal services for patients who are aged 18 and above using micro-suction and any other suitable instruments under microscopic or magnified visualisation that would previously have required referral to secondary care but does not require specialist intervention.
