Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Birmingham and Solihull Integrated Care Board and NHS Black Country Integrated Care Board are leading public procurement processes for orthodontic services in Birmingham and Walsall. The procurement focuses on awarding contracts for high-quality dental practice and related services, under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) Regulations 2023. Currently at the award stage, the contract with Lot 1 in Birmingham is set to commence on 1st January 2027, while Lot 2 in Walsall is expected to start on the same date. Each contract spans 10 years with potential extensions up to 20 years. Interested parties must submit representations by 27th March 2026. The respective procurements utilise an open procedure for selection, a competitive process allowing room for potential suppliers to highlight innovation and service quality.

These procurement opportunities can significantly benefit small and medium enterprises (SMEs) experienced in dental services, particularly those specialising in orthodontic care. As NHS-run initiatives focusing on delivering equitable and cost-effective specialist services, they promise substantial long-term business growth potential for providers. The contracts will cater to the needs of patients under 18, enhancing access to orthodontic treatment and addressing health inequalities. Organisations with innovative approaches to dental care, a commitment to social value, and the ability to integrate and collaborate for service sustainability will be key players in successfully securing these opportunities. Suppliers that qualify through the multi-stage competitive process can expect significant contracts with high-value returns, promoting growth and expansion over decades to come.
