Summary of the contracting process

NHS Coventry and Warwickshire Integrated Care Board is overseeing the procurement process for two public tenders related to health services for asylum seekers. The first tender, in the award stage, involves an urgent contract for Primary Care Services at the Initial Accommodation Centre for asylum seekers and refugees. This contract was awarded to Primary Care Partners Limited to ensure continuity of services and address immediate safety and healthcare needs from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026, with a total value of £101,000. Meanwhile, the second procurement is in the planning stage and seeks to gather market intelligence for the provision of initial health services for asylum seekers in Coventry. This early engagement exercise invites expressions of interest by 27th February 2025, with an estimated contract value of £100,908.

These tenders present significant opportunities for businesses operating within the healthcare sector, specifically those with experience in providing specialist health services to vulnerable populations.

The second opportunity allows businesses to shape future procurement through feedback and engagement, ideal for current healthcare providers who are CQC-registered and can demonstrate a capacity for onsite service delivery. This process is designed to mitigate risks and ensure quality care, opening doors for businesses adept in managing health services within asylum seeker communities.

Failure to provide this service will mean that vulnerable patients will have to use mainstream GP practices who are already under pressure to deliver services to patients. The service is set up to address the specialist and increased health care needs of the specific population and allows resources to be targeted through one provider rather than multiple GP practices.<br/><br/>There were no declared or potential conflicts of interest.<br/><br/>The decision makers for this process are Coventry & Warwickshire Integrated Care Board (ICB) Procurement Panel.",
