Summary of the contracting process

NHS Lincolnshire Integrated Care Board is procuring primary care enhanced services for patients in Lincolnshire. The scope covers phlebotomy, treatment-room work, leg-ulcer care, pessary fitting, warfarin and DOAC monitoring, gonadorelin treatment such as Zoladex, specialised drug monitoring, safeguarding, minor injuries, deep-vein thrombosis assessment and management including D-dimer testing, and services for older adults. This is a healthcare services contract, specifically general-practitioner services. The work is intended to support delivery through primary care rather than a single goods supply or construction project. The named buyer is NHS Lincolnshire Integrated Care Board, based in Sleaford. The selected provider, Gosberton Medical Centre, is based in Gosberton and is identified as an SME.

The procurement is recorded as awarded, with Gosberton Medical Centre selected under the Provider Selection Regime’s direct award process C, without a prior call for competition. The award decision date is 11 September 2026 and the contract is recorded as active and signed on that date. The contract period runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027, with an awarded contract value of £133,696. The published intention to award starts a standstill period, during which provider representations had to reach the decision-makers by 23 September 2026. Evaluation used the existing provider’s ability to satisfy the proposed contract to a sufficient standard, with the stated criteria covering quality and innovation, value, integration and sustainability, access and health inequalities, choice, and social value. One bid was recorded, from an SME.

This procurement indicates continuing NHS demand for a broad package of enhanced general-practice services delivered through primary care. A credible future competitor would need to provide several community-based clinical services rather than a single specialist intervention, with appropriately qualified staff and the operational capacity to manage routine monitoring, treatment-room activity, wound and leg-ulcer care, minor injuries, safeguarding, older-adult care and urgent assessment pathways. Experience delivering existing NHS or primary-care contracts would be important, because the decision placed emphasis on satisfactory performance by the incumbent. Providers should also be able to demonstrate safe clinical governance, reliable integration with wider health services, sustainable delivery, patient access and action to reduce health inequalities. Evidence of quality, innovation, value and social value would support future competition for this requirement.
