Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

This procurement process was conducted by Thurrock Council for the provision of NHS Health Checks in Thurrock, focusing on health services under the industry category. The contract was awarded as part of the Provider Selection Regime under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The procurement is in the award stage, with contracts awarded to four suppliers: Hassengate Medical Centre, Aveley Medical Centre, Grays PCN Ltd, and College Health Ltd. The service will be delivered from 1st October 2025 to 30th September 2028, with an extension option for two more years. The total estimated value of the contract is £1,456,965, based on activity levels. The procurement was executed using a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition due to the specific service requirements and the necessity for seamless access to primary care records.

This tender creates business growth opportunities primarily for medical centres and networks with capabilities in providing general medical and healthcare services. Given the process's nature, providers involved in primary care services, particularly those partnering or subcontracting with general practitioners, are well-suited to compete as only such entities can meet the specific needs of NHS Health Checks, including comprehensive outreach and patient engagement. The opportunity supports businesses looking to expand their scope within regional or local health service provision, leveraging existing expertise in health checks and primary care service delivery.

Lot Information

Lot 1

The contract is for the delivery of the NHS Health Check programme across Thurrock. The service includes the proactive identification and invitation of eligible residents, targeted outreach to individuals with identified cardiovascular risk factors, and delivery of NHS Health Checks in accordance with national standards. The aims of the service are to increase uptake, reduce health inequalities, and support early identification of cardiovascular risk among the Thurrock population. This contract has been awarded using Direct Award Process A under the Provider Selection Regime. The service is an existing provision. Due to the nature of NHS Health Checks - requiring access to patients' primary care records, continuity of care and the ability to deliver targeted, population-specific engagement - Primary Care Networks (subcontracting to or in partnership with GPs) are the only providers able to meet these specific service requirements and provide equitable access across Thurrock. There are no realistic alternative providers capable of delivering the service in a way that meets the identified health needs. The lifetime value of the five-year contract is PS1,456,965 (estimated), with actual costs dependent on activity levels. The contract will run for three years, from 1st October 2025 to 30th September 2028, with the option to extend by a further two years.

Procurement Information

The contract has been lawfully awarded without prior publication because it falls under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, which replace the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 for relevant healthcare services.
