Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust has issued a notice for the provision of optician services at HMP Birmingham, with Eyecare Mobile Opticians Ltd as the current provider. This procurement, classified under the CPV code 85160000, is in the services category and has been updated on 7th May 2026. The procurement process allows a contract extension from May to October 2026, ensuring a seamless transition to the next contractual phase. This follows an initial six-month term from 1st November 2025 to 30th April 2026. The contract, governed by the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) and utilising a limited procurement method, was initially awarded under urgent circumstances due to compatibility and technical considerations.

This procurement represents an opportunity for businesses involved in optician or healthcare services to establish or strengthen partnerships with a public healthcare body. While Eyecare Mobile Opticians Ltd is the current supplier, this ongoing assessment opens the market for potential competitors, particularly those skilled in ophthalmology services delivery within secure environments like correctional facilities. Companies with experience in healthcare logistics, compliance, and technical integration may find this contract beneficial for their business growth, providing a steady engagement with the public sector and a footprint in institutional healthcare service provision.
