Planning Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board, with the support of North of England Commissioning Support (NECS), is in the planning stage of a procurement process for urgent dental treatment services across South Yorkshire. This exercise is planned to cover lots in Barnsley, Doncaster, Rotherham, and Sheffield. The industry category is primarily dental-practice services within the broader context of health and social work services. The procurement process, classified under CELEX legal basis, involves a market landscaping exercise set to gather information as a prelude to a future tender process, with a notable closing deadline for this information gathering being noon on 1 September 2025. Prospective participants should prepare for future publication of the contract notice by 1 November 2025.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the dental and healthcare sectors to expand their operations within the South Yorkshire region. The procurement process, while still in the planning stage, invites expressions of interest from entities specialising in dental practice services, particularly those capable of managing services across multiple locations, as up to four lots may be awarded per supplier. Interested businesses, especially those equipped to handle service delivery across multiple geographic zones, stand to gain from being involved in this procurement exercise. Participation at this stage through the request for information will position businesses favourably for when the competition opens officially.
