Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board commissioned pharmacy services for the Rotherham population through its Pharmacy Local Enhanced Services arrangement. The work involves delivering locally enhanced healthcare services alongside the Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework (CPCF), rather than as a standalone service. Delivery is centred on Rotherham, South Yorkshire, for local patients. The requirement is classified as pharmacy services and is a healthcare service procurement. The selected provider is York Road Healthcare Ltd, a small or medium-sized enterprise based in St Helens. The arrangement is intended to enhance existing CPCF pharmacy provision and depends on the interdependency between the core community pharmacy contract and the local enhanced services.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to York Road Healthcare Ltd under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023; the Procurement Act 2023 does not apply. It used direct award process B, described as a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. The contract was signed on 1 April 2026 and runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its value is recorded as £1, although the procurement states that the lifetime value is unknown because payment depends on patient activity. The award was evaluated on price. One bid was recorded. The award is active, while the associated lot is marked cancelled in the procurement data.

This requirement is most relevant to community pharmacies able to hold, or work through, a Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework contract and deliver local enhanced services alongside it. A credible competitor would need the pharmacy infrastructure, clinical capability, governance and patient-facing capacity to provide services to the Rotherham population under the relevant service specification. Understanding the operational links between CPCF provision and locally enhanced services is important, because the buyer treats the enhanced work as an addition to the core pharmacy arrangement rather than an independent service. Suppliers with established local delivery, reliable activity-based reporting and the capacity to support patient demand would be well placed when this type of requirement is next considered.

Notice Title

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 (pharmacy) is because they are required to hold a contract via the Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework (CPCF) and deliver the LCS alongside these services; the LCS is designed to enhance the (CPCF) contract and not stand alone, therefore, interdependency between the two services is paramount. For this reason not every Pharmacy delivers every LCS.

This contract has been awarded following the direct award process B.

The lifetime value for this contract is unknown as it is based on patient activity.

The contract will run from 01/04/2026 to 31/03/2027

This is an existing service with an existing provider. Additional information: The contract value is unknown as it is based on patient activity.
