Summary of the contracting process

NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board commissioned a GP locally commissioned services contract for Upwell Street Surgery. The requirement is for general practitioner services that enhance and operate alongside the existing GP Framework contract, rather than as a standalone service. Delivery is in Sheffield, through the local primary care setting. The service is intended for an existing group of GP providers whose locally commissioned services are interdependent with their GP Framework obligations. The selected supplier, Upwell Street Surgery, is a small or medium-sized enterprise. This is a healthcare services requirement managed by the Integrated Care Board, with the work centred on GP-led provision for patients in Sheffield. The contract sits within the Health Care Services Provider Selection Regime.

The procurement has been completed and awarded under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, using direct award procedure A without prior publication of a competition. Upwell Street Surgery was selected for the single service lot, with one bid recorded. Evaluation was based entirely on quality, with cost carrying no weighting. The contract was signed on 1 April 2026 and runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027. The recorded contract value is £1 GBP, while the service description states that payment is activity-based at local prices and the overall value is unknown. The tender record marks the lot as cancelled, but the award and contract are active. The award decision was made by the Portfolio Lead for Transformation & Delivery (Contracting).

This award shows a defined local market for GP-led services that must operate alongside an established GP Framework arrangement. A credible future competitor would need to be an existing GP provider, or part of an eligible provider group, with the contractual standing and operational infrastructure to deliver both the framework activity and locally commissioned services together. The requirement is therefore suited to primary care organisations already embedded in Sheffield and able to meet the local service specification. Quality is the decisive consideration: the evaluation gave it all the weighting, with cost excluded from the scoring. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate reliable clinical delivery, capacity for activity-based provision, familiarity with NHS primary care governance and the ability to manage interdependent services rather than offering an isolated GP service.

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.
