Summary of the contracting process

Shropshire Council has awarded a contract titled "PMCV 025 - School Vision Screening Service" under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. This contract, classified under the health services industry category, aims to identify children aged 4 to 5 years with reduced vision in one eye to facilitate timely intervention. The contract, worth £130,073, will span three years from 1st August 2024 to 31st July 2027. The procurement process utilised a direct award method (Process C), and the award was confirmed on 5th July 2024. The primary location for the service delivery is within the Shropshire Council region, specifically in Shrewsbury, UKG22.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities for healthcare service providers, particularly those experienced in vision screening and intervention for young children. Businesses specialising in paediatric health services, eye care, and school health programmes would be well-suited to compete. The contract's specific focus on early detection and intervention of amblyopia presents a unique niche for providers with expertise in vision abnormalities and neuroplastic development in children. Additionally, given the direct award method, existing service providers with a proven track record in fulfilling similar contracts are in a favourable position to leverage this opportunity to expand their service offerings within the Shropshire region.

Notice Title

PMCV 025 - School Vision Screening Service

Notice Description

The primary aim of the Services is to identify children aged 4 to 5 years with reduced vision in one eye, enabling timely intervention which gives these children a chance at achieving their full visual potential. The Services will also identify children with impaired sight in both eyes, children with poorer vision in both eyes are usually identified in infancy through other screening programmes (the Neonatal Infant Physical Examination and the Retinopathy of Prematurity screening programmes), or are detected through their symptoms. The screening for reduced vision in children aged 4 to 5 years is primarily undertaken to detect individuals with amblyopia, which literally means 'blunted sight' but is a form of abnormal vision system development. We intend to award a contract to an existing provider following direct award process C. The Contract will be for 3 year period from 1st August 2024 to 31st July 2027.

The primary aim of the Services is to identify children aged 4 to 5 years with reduced vision in one eye, enabling timely intervention which gives these children a chance at achieving their full visual potential. The Services will also identify children with impaired sight in both eyes, children with poorer vision in both eyes are usually identified in infancy through other screening programmes (the Neonatal Infant Physical Examination and the Retinopathy of Prematurity screening programmes), or are detected through their symptoms. The screening for reduced vision in children aged 4 to 5 years is primarily undertaken to detect individuals with amblyopia, which literally means 'blunted sight' but is a form of abnormal vision system development. It is commonly defined as impaired vision that is not attributable to a structural abnormality of the eye. Early detection of amblyopia is necessary to avoid permanent visual impairment by allowing treatment to be undertaken within the sensitive period of neuroplasticity (growth and change) in the visual system. We intend to award a contract to an existing provider following direct award process C. The Contract will be for 3 year period from 1st August 2024 to 31st July 2027.
