## Summary

The Cambridgeshire County Council is conducting a procurement process titled "Cambridgeshire Public Health Primary Care Commissioning DPS," which is classified under health and social work services. This dynamic purchasing system (DPS) will invite GP Practices and Community Pharmacies to provide various public health services in the East of England. The current procurement stage is 'Tender', with the deadline for submitting applications set for 23rd April 2019. The contract will run from 1st June 2019 until 31st May 2023, with a total estimated value of £4,765,236. Interested organisations will be able to submit applications throughout the DPS’s duration, starting from June 2019 until the end of the contract period.

The procurement's flexible bidding process allows both individual practices and collective groups to participate, making it an attractive tender for various sizes of health service providers keen to expand their service offerings.
