Summary of the contracting process

NHS Mid and South Essex Integrated Care Board (ICB) has confirmed the award of a contract for primary medical services at Beaulieu Park, Chelmsford, Essex. The contract, valued at approximately £624,767, will commence in Autumn 2024 in response to significant housing growth in the area. The procurement followed a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) Regulations 2023. The contract has been awarded to Elizabeth Courtauld Partnership, and the new primary care health centre will operate as an additional site of an existing local practice, ensuring extended coverage within a 7km radius. The procurement project has passed several stages, including planning, intention to award, and final award, with key criteria focusing on quality, value, collaboration, and social value. The contract was signed on 16 August 2024.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for expanding medical service providers, especially those located within a 7km radius of the new Beaulieu Park health centre. Providers will benefit from taking on an initial patient list size of zero, with growth anticipated from new housing residents. The contract requires collaboration with the General Practice Improvement Programme and the provision of seamless service integration across sites. This tender is particularly suitable for local practices that can meet these criteria and aim to expand their service locations while delivering high-quality, innovative medical services. The contract is set to provide considerable business growth opportunities by aligning service provision with the expanding local population in the rapidly developing Chelmsford area.

Providers will need to accept a patient list size of zero from day one of the contract with the Beaulieu Park new housing residents becoming registered and through patient choice any patients choosing to register from their current practice to the new Beaulieu Park provider. Due to patient choice the ICB is unable to guarantee patient numbers, but population growth estimates are available. The most recent Chelmsford housing trajectory published in March 2023 showed 2,420 dwellings outstanding in the Beaulieu development. The ICB assumes 2.4 people per dwelling giving 5,808 new residents. Therefore, the indicative first year contract value based on the above dwelling assumption would be 5,808 x PS107.57 (Global Sum 24/25) = PS624,767 Primary care providers must: * be located within a 7km radius of the Beaulieu Park primary care new build facility. * operate this site as a "sister" site alongside existing premises. A single equitable access model must be provided across all sites, within a single continuous boundary line. If the practice boundary does not already cover the housing development associated with this new build the provider must extend the practice boundary to incorporate it. * actively engage with General Practice Improvement Programme. * expectation is premises will be open during core GMS hours by the end of 2027 (if not sooner) * hold a compliant lease with the housing developers (which will require signature before service commencement) * be able to provide services from this site from Autumn 2024 Given the detailed knowledge of the provider landscape, the need for a fair, proportionate process which enables a phased go-live in Autumn 2024 it was recommended that the ICB enter the 'Most Suitable Provider' process under the new PSR regulations.
