Summary of the contracting process

NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board commissioned a GP Locally Commissioned Services (LCS) contract for Green Cross Group Practice. The requirement is for general practitioner services that enhance and operate alongside the provider’s existing GP Framework contract, rather than as a standalone service. Delivery is in Sheffield. The LCS is an established service for an existing group of GP providers, with delivery dependent on holding the relevant GP Framework contract and meeting the contract and service specification criteria. The commissioning organisation is the NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board, based in Sheffield. This is a healthcare services requirement, focused on locally commissioned primary care provision and its integration with existing GP framework services.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Green Cross Group Practice under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. It used direct award process A, 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. The published contract value is £1, although the service description states that payment is activity-based at local prices and the overall value is unknown. Evaluation was based entirely on quality, weighted at 100%; cost carried a weighting of 0%. The contract is active and the awarded supplier is Green Cross Group Practice.

This procurement indicates demand from NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board for GP practices able to deliver locally commissioned services as an extension of an existing GP Framework arrangement. A credible future competitor would therefore need to be an established general practice or provider group with the required GP Framework contract, the clinical capability and capacity to deliver the specified LCS activity, and systems for meeting the associated service and quality requirements. The buyer’s evaluation placed all emphasis on quality rather than cost, so evidence of safe, effective and well-governed primary care delivery would be important. The awarded supplier is identified as an SME, showing that this type of requirement can be delivered by a smaller practice or provider group when it has the necessary framework position and operational capability.

Notice Description

GP Locally Commissioned Services Contract.

Lot Information

Lot 1

This contract Award has been made following direct award process A of the Provider Selection Regime.

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 (GP) is because they are required to hold a contract via the GP Framework and deliver the LCS alongside these services; the LCS is designed to enhance the GP Framework contract and not stand alone, therefore, interdependency between the two services is paramount.

The provider is paid on an activity basis based on local prices, therefore the overall contract value is unknown.

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

This is an existing service with an existing provider.
