Summary of the contracting process

The NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board has awarded a contract for optician services under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR), to Premier Eyecare located in Rotherham, South Yorkshire. This award, titled "NHS South Yorkshire ICB Optometry LCS Contract 2025-26 - Premier Eyecare," falls within the health care services category and is part of a confirmation of contract award notice under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The procurement process was conducted using a limited method, with the contract running from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses in the optometry field, particularly those that can meet the specific requirements of delivering locally enhanced services alongside a General Ophthalmic Services (GOS) contract. The focus on patient choice and quality indicates that businesses prioritising high-quality service delivery stand to benefit. Although the current award is directed towards an existing provider, it underscores a lucrative segment for optometrists who hold GOS contracts, potentially offering growth opportunities for those aiming to enhance their service range in alignment with such contracts.

Notice Title

NHS South Yorkshire ICB Optometry LCS Contract 2025-26 - Premier Eyecare

Notice Description

The provider is commissioned to deliver locally enhanced services for the Rotherham population.

Lot Information

Lot 1

These contracts are awarded to an existing group of providers. Although we would not restrict the number of providers who deliver these LCS services provided they meet the contract and specification criteria, the primary reason that these services can only be delivered by this group of providers (Optometrists) is because they are required to hold a General Ophthalmic Services (GOS) contract and deliver the LCS alongside these services; the LCS is designed to enhance the (GOS) contract and not stand alone, therefore, interdependency between the two services is paramount. For this reason not every Optometrist delivers every LCS.

The contract has been awarded following the direst award process B.

The value of the contract is unknown as it is based on patient activity..

The contract will run from 01/04/2025 to 31/03/2026.

This is an existing contract with an existing provider.

Procurement Information

This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) confirmation of contract award notice. This contract has been awarded under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Procurement Act 2023 do not apply to this award.
