Summary of the contracting process

Bath and North East Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire Integrated Care Board commissioned routine elective, daycase and outpatient healthcare services from Community Health and Eyecare Limited. The service is intended to enhance patient choice and support prompt diagnosis, assessment and treatment. It is consultant-led and covers ophthalmology, dermatology, gastroenterology, and ear, nose and throat procedures and outpatient services. Delivery is from Unit 3 Warwick House, Swindon, SN3 3RB. The buying organisation is Bath and North East Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire Integrated Care Board. This is a healthcare services requirement, classified under CPV 85100000. The arrangement is made under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 and supports NHS Right to Choose requirements.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Community Health and Eyecare Limited through Direct Award Process B under the Provider Selection Regime, without a prior call for competition. The award decision was approved on 19 May 2026, which is also the contract signing date. The contract period runs from 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2029, for three years. The published contract value is £0.01, while the arrangement is activity-based and carries no guaranteed value. Evaluation placed 100% of the stated weighting on patient choice and 0% on price. One bid was recorded. The award is active; the associated lot is recorded as cancelled. The award was made under the 2023 healthcare provider selection regulations rather than the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 or Procurement Act 2023.

This outcome indicates demand for consultant-led NHS elective, daycase and outpatient capacity across ophthalmology, dermatology, gastroenterology, and ear, nose and throat services. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement would need to provide prompt diagnosis, assessment and treatment, support patient choice, and operate suitable clinical facilities for patients in the Swindon area. Relevant providers are likely to be established healthcare organisations with the clinical workforce, governance arrangements, referral pathways and operational capacity to deliver routine procedures and outpatient appointments across several specialties. The evaluation emphasis shows that patient choice and accessible service delivery are more commercially significant to this buyer than price alone. Organisations able to demonstrate consistent patient-focused outcomes and capacity across the full range of specialties would be credible competitors when this requirement is next reviewed.
