Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS Lincolnshire Integrated Care Board is procuring enhanced primary care services delivered through general practice. The package covers phlebotomy, treatment room services, pessary care, DOAC-related services, gonadorelin treatment (Zoladex), specialised drug monitoring and safeguarding. These are existing services provided by an established provider, rather than a new service offering. The delivery location is recorded as UKF3, which corresponds to Lincolnshire; the selected provider, Holbeach Medical Centre, is based in Holbeach. The requirement is therefore relevant to GP practices and healthcare providers able to deliver this mix of enhanced clinical and safeguarding services in Lincolnshire.

The procurement used a direct award under process C of the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, without a prior competition. NHS Lincolnshire Integrated Care Board selected Holbeach Medical Centre. The intention to award was published on 2 October 2026, and the contract was signed that day. Its value is £61,921, for services from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027. The selection decision relied on the existing provider’s performance and expected ability to meet the proposed contract to a sufficient standard; cost was the stated 100% criterion. The PSR standstill period began with the intention to award, and representations to decision-makers were due by 14 October 2026. The process data labels the lot cancelled, while the award and signed contract are recorded as active.

For providers considering this buyer’s future requirement, the award demonstrates demand for a bundled GP-led service covering phlebotomy, treatment room work, pessary care, DOAC services, gonadorelins, specialised drug monitoring and safeguarding. A credible competitor would need to show it can sustain all these existing services to a sufficient standard, with clinical delivery capacity and appropriate safeguarding practice. The decision framework favoured continuity: it assessed whether the incumbent was meeting the original contract and was likely to meet the proposed one, with cost carrying the stated full weighting. Providers should therefore be able to evidence reliable performance across the whole service package and offer value, alongside quality, innovation, integration, collaboration, sustainability, improved access, action on health inequalities, choice and social value. The requirement is specific to primary care delivery in Lincolnshire.
