Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Kent and Medway Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) is initiating a market engagement for 'Dermatology Services (Kent & Medway)'. This process is currently at the planning stage, and it aims to prepare for the possible procurement of services over an anticipated contract duration of five years, with an option to extend by two years. The engagement period ends on 8th April 2022, which will allow interested providers to offer feedback through a questionnaire. The procurement will be divided into two lots covering different regions within Kent — West and North Kent, and East Kent Community Dermatology Service — targeting health services classified under the CPV code 85100000.

This opportunity presents a significant pathway for growth for businesses in the healthcare sector, especially those proficient in delivering dermatological services.

Interested organisations are encouraged to review the available documentation and participate in the market engagement to prepare for future calls for competition, fostering innovation and enhancing service delivery within the NHS framework.
