Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS Herefordshire and Worcestershire Integrated Care Board is procuring the provision of orthodontic services for patients. The service is classified as orthodontic services under CPV 85131100 and continues the existing nature and character of the requirement. Delivery is associated with Bromsgrove, Worcestershire, including the service address at 15 Churchfields, Bromsgrove, B61 8DS. The appointed provider is Orthodontics for You, a Bromsgrove-based small and medium-sized enterprise. This is a healthcare services requirement rather than a supply or construction contract, suited to organisations delivering orthodontic treatment and related clinical provision for an NHS commissioning body. The requirement is being managed under the Provider Selection Regime for healthcare services, with the NHS board acting as the buyer.

The procurement has been awarded and the existing contract has been formally modified under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023; the Procurement Act 2023 does not apply. Orthodontics for You received the active award. The award was approved by DAIG on 4 June 2026, by West Midlands Joint Commissioning Group on 10 June 2026 and by the Joint Committee on 14 August 2026, when the contract was signed. The active contract runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2029, a 36-month modification intended to maintain service continuity while the long-term plan is finalised. The original contract value is £5,001,351; the modification value is £1,667,117.05; the total contract value is £6,668,468.05. No conflicts of interest were declared.

This award shows sustained NHS demand for orthodontic services in Bromsgrove and the surrounding commissioning area, delivered through a local specialist provider. A credible future competitor would need the clinical capability and operational capacity to continue orthodontic provision without interruption, while meeting the requirements of an NHS healthcare commissioning arrangement. Orthodontic providers with an established local base, suitable premises, appropriately qualified clinical staff and the ability to manage patient services at this scale would be well placed. The award of the modified requirement to an SME also indicates that delivery is not limited to a national corporate provider: a focused independent practice can be commercially relevant where it can demonstrate dependable service continuity, appropriate governance and the resources needed to support NHS patients throughout the contract.
