Summary of the contracting process

The NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board, located in Sunderland, has recently initiated a procurement process for "QHM-2025-9900 JJJ Optical", focusing on optician services within the services industry category. The procurement, guided by the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, involved a direct award process without prior publication, operating under the limited procurement method. This contract, valued at £280, is active from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026, with JJJ Optical Limited as the awarded supplier. The completion status was confirmed on 28th August 2025, following the conclusion of any necessary amendments and the standstill period after the 15th August 2025 deadline for representations.

This tender represents a promising opportunity for businesses specialising in optometry services, particularly those able to meet stringent quality and cost standards required under the contract's key criteria. While the contract was awarded based on the provider's proven satisfaction of previous commitments, similar large-scale optical service providers located in the UK region, specifically near Sunderland, might be well-placed to engage in future opportunities by focusing on aligning their services with public health requirements and addressing any unique needs outlined by the NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board. Engaging with such tenders could lead to substantial long-term partnerships within the public health sector.
