Summary of the contracting process

NHS Coventry and Warwickshire Integrated Care Board is procuring orthodontic services for patients in the Coventry and Warwickshire area, through the Office of the West Midlands. The requirement covers continued delivery of orthodontic care by an existing provider under a new healthcare services contract. The service is classified as orthodontic services and falls within the health services sector. The named incumbent is Holywell House Orthodontics Limited – Rugby, an SME based in Rugby. This opportunity is relevant to orthodontic providers able to deliver patient services across Coventry and Warwickshire, particularly those with established local clinical capacity and the infrastructure needed to maintain continuity of care.

The procurement has reached the intention-to-award stage under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. Holywell House Orthodontics Limited – Rugby was selected through Direct Award Process C, without a prior competition. The contract was signed on 14 August 2026 and is recorded as active, although the notice states that formal award remains subject to the standstill and representations process. The contract is planned to run from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2036: seven years with an option to extend by three years. Its lifetime value is £4,741,102.42, subject to 2026/27 DDRB. Evaluation used equal pass/fail assessment of quality and innovation, value, integration and sustainability, access and health inequalities, and social value; the lot recorded quality at 100% and price at 0%.

This procurement demonstrates sustained NHS demand for orthodontic services in Coventry and Warwickshire at a substantial multi-year scale, with continuity of patient care central to the decision. A future competitor would need to show that it can deliver the existing service model reliably, meet all basic selection requirements and provide evidence against the Provider Selection Regime’s five criteria. Credible suppliers would therefore need strong clinical quality, effective innovation, demonstrable value, integration with commissioners and other services, sustainable operations, and the ability to improve access, reduce health inequalities and support patient choice. Evidence of social value and consistently satisfactory performance would also be important. The incumbent’s SME status indicates that delivery is not limited to a national-scale provider.
