Summary of the contracting process

NHS Tayside is seeking a provider for general medical services at Maryfield Medical Centre in Dundee, serving approximately 6,820 patients within the current practice boundary. The requirement is to return the practice, currently operated under a 2C arrangement, to an independent contractor model. The successful provider will deliver high-quality, person-centred clinical services in a primary care setting under an NHS General Medical Services contract for Scotland. Services should build on existing good practice and take a community and health and social care approach, with patient care standards consistent with comparable NHS Tayside services. The work is classified as general medical services (CPV 85120000) and will be delivered at Maryfield Medical Centre, Dundee.

The procurement reached tender: NHS Tayside invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. The tender deadline was 25 August 2026 at 12:00 UTC. Bid opening was scheduled for 26 August 2026 at 12:00 UTC, with the award period starting at that time. The contract period is 1,800 days, with renewal to be agreed with the successful bidder. Bids must remain valid for 90 days and may be submitted in English. Variants are not allowed. Evaluation includes suitability against the prescribed NHS General Medical Services contract terms and technical eligibility, because delivery is reserved to a particular profession. Applicants must provide staff names and qualifications. The contract permits electronic payment and electronic invoicing.

This opportunity suits established general practice providers, GP partnerships, healthcare organisations and suitably qualified medical professionals able to hold and perform an NHS General Medical Services contract in Scotland. Competitors should have the clinical capability, leadership and operational capacity to provide safe, person-centred primary care for a substantial patient list and to meet the requirements of the NHS General Medical Services Scotland framework. The buyer will expect evidence that existing practices, schemes or other NHS contracts can continue to be delivered without the new service reducing capacity. Providers should be able to recruit and manage appropriately qualified clinical staff, demonstrate high standards of primary care, and work effectively across community, health and social care services. Experience of transitioning or managing independent contractor general medical services would be directly relevant.
