Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Greater Manchester Health & Social Care Partnership has recently awarded a contract for Orthodontic Services in Salford, which falls under the health and social work services industry category. This procurement process was initiated as a limited tender, specifically through a negotiated procedure without prior publication, due to extreme urgency arising from COVID-19 pressures. The award was made to Links Associates Salford Ltd, with the contract values set at £788,189.90. The contract commencement date was April 1, 2021, and is scheduled to run until March 31, 2022. Market engagement is planned for early Spring 2021 to inform future service commissioning in this sector.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in orthodontic and dental services. Given the emphasis on delivering services across Greater Manchester to children aged 12 to 18 requiring orthodontic interventions, businesses with expertise in paediatric dentistry and orthodontics are particularly well-suited to compete. Engaging in this procurement process could help enhance service delivery in the region while supporting local community needs.
