Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board commissioned locally commissioned GP services for Richmond Medical Centre in Sheffield. The requirement is a GP healthcare service designed to enhance and operate alongside the existing GP Framework contract, rather than as a standalone service. Delivery is in Sheffield. The service is an established arrangement with an existing provider group, and the selected provider is Richmond Medical Centre, a small or medium-sized enterprise based in Sheffield. Providers must therefore be able to deliver general-practitioner services within NHS primary care arrangements and coordinate the locally commissioned service with the associated GP Framework provision. The commissioning organisation is the NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board, which covers the buyer’s primary care requirement for this service.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Richmond Medical Centre. The award decision was made on 1 April 2026, with the contract running from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027. The recorded contract value is £1, although the procurement description says payment is activity-based at local prices and the overall value is unknown. This was a limited direct award under Process A of the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, without prior publication of a call for competition. One provider bid was recorded. Evaluation was based entirely on quality, weighted at 100%; cost carried no weighting. The arrangement is tied to an existing GP Framework contract and is intended to support an existing service.

This award indicates demand for locally commissioned GP services that are integrated with an NHS GP Framework rather than delivered independently. A credible future competitor would need an established GP practice or provider-group capability, the contractual standing to participate in the relevant GP Framework, and the operational capacity to deliver additional locally commissioned activity alongside core framework services. Strong clinical governance, reliable primary care staffing, activity-based delivery and the ability to work to local NHS prices would be important. Richmond Medical Centre’s selection also shows that an SME-sized provider can meet the requirement. Businesses with comparable Sheffield-area primary care operations, existing NHS contracting experience and systems for recording and delivering commissioned activity are the closest fit for this type of opportunity.

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.
