The contract, which falls under the community health services industry category, covers areas including Lancashire, Blackburn with Darwen, South Cumbria, Liverpool, Wigan and Leigh, and Cheshire West and Chester. The procurement was carried out using a limited method, specifically under the urgent circumstances provision of the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) Regulations 2023, bypassing the standard Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The contracts are set to start on 1st September 2024 and end on 30th April 2025, aligning with the flu season. Each contract is activity-based, with a tariff of £15 per vaccination administered.

This procurement provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in healthcare services, particularly within community health and substance misuse sectors. Large healthcare providers, due to their capacity and experience, are particularly well-suited for this type of contract, as evidenced by the awarded suppliers like Change, Grow, Live, Delphi Medical, Humankind, We Are With You, and Via. These contracts offer a steady stream of income per vaccination, and businesses with existing infrastructure in the specified localities can leverage this opportunity to expand their service offerings and operational reach. The focus on addressing immediate risks to safety and quality of care also highlights the importance placed on high-quality service provision, making it an ideal opportunity for businesses committed to these standards.
