Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Sussex Integrated Care Board has announced the award of a contract for an Integrated Cataract Pathway under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR). The process follows the Health Care Services Regulations of 2023, bypassing the Public Contracts Regulations of 2015. Arnold's Opticians Limited has been selected to deliver optician services in Sussex. The contract, valued at £0.01 GBP, will commence on 1 July 2024 and conclude on 30 June 2029. The contract award was confirmed by the Deputy Director of Acute Services, with no reported conflicts of interest. This award falls under a limited procurement method, specifically a direct award process without prior publication of a call for competition.

This contract offers substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in healthcare, particularly those that provide optician services or related healthcare services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in medical and healthcare sectors are well-suited to compete, as the contract covers a comprehensive pathway involving both community opticians and hospital services. By securing such contracts, businesses can expand their service offerings and establish stronger relationships within the healthcare sector. Arnold's Opticians Limited’s involvement highlights the potential for existing providers to leverage their expertise and market position to secure similar awards.
