Summary of the contracting process

The NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board (NHS NENC ICB) has awarded a contract for Minor Oral Surgery Services in Darlington. This procurement, classified under dental practice and related services (CPV code 85130000), falls within the 'services' category. The contract is valued at £273,354 over its lifetime, with an annual value of £136,677, running from 2 April 2025 to 31 March 2027. The procurement was conducted through a Direct Award Process C under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, and the award was finalised on 2 April 2025. The services will cover the Darlington region, specifically classified as UKC1.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the healthcare sector, particularly those specialising in dental services. By securing this contract, businesses can ensure a steady revenue stream over the two-year period and strengthen their portfolio by associating with a reputable public entity like NHS NENC ICB. Enterprises already offering similar services or capable of expanding their oral surgery units to accommodate additional referrals from general access dental practices, especially where sedation is required, would be well-suited to compete. As this is a repeat procurement for an existing service, companies with proven track records in delivering high-quality dental care services stand to benefit greatly.
