Summary of the contracting process

The NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board has conducted a procurement process entitled "QHM-2025-8792 Campbell & McDearmid," classified under the miscellaneous health services industry category, specifically for optometry services. The process focuses on a single location in Sunderland, UK. The procurement utilised a direct award method under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) without prior publication of a call for competition, indicating it falls outside typical Public Contracts Regulations. The award status is active, with a contract value of £2,506 for a duration from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026. The procurement stage was initially announced on 4th August 2025 as an intention to award with a standstill period allowing representations until 15th August 2025.

This procurement presents growth opportunities for businesses, especially those in the healthcare services sector, with a specific focus on optometry services. As the existing provider, Campbell & McDearmid Optometrists, achieved the necessary standards, other large-scale service providers that can demonstrate high-quality and cost-effective solutions may find similar contracts appealing. The opportunity to work with NHS boards such as the North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board could serve as a prestigious addition to a company’s portfolio, particularly for those capable of navigating direct award or limited competition processes in compliance with newer regulatory frameworks like the PSR.
