Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Lancashire and South Cumbria Integrated Care Board has awarded a contract for macular services in West Lancashire under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) with a direct award process C, sidestepping the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. This service falls under ophthalmologist services in the health industry category, and will take place in the UKD4 region with a contract duration from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026. The procurement method used was limited, allowing an award procedure without prior advertisement. The decision to award was finalised on 4th February 2025, with SpaMedica Ltd being the successful supplier.

This contract represents a valuable opportunity for organisations that are already established in providing high-quality, integrated ophthalmology services, offering scope for further engagement and growth especially for those with an existing footprint in the health sector. Businesses capable of demonstrating excellence in service delivery, value, integration, and innovation will be well-suited to benefit from similar contracts within the PSR framework. It highlights the importance of meeting specific criteria including quality, access improvement, and social value, which are crucial for successfully competing in this procurement environment.
