## Summary

The NHS Southwark Clinical Commissioning Group is currently conducting a public procurement for Audiology services through an open tender process. This joint procurement, collaborating with NHS Lambeth CCG, is classified under the health services category and encompasses a budget of £2,560,000. The tender period concluded on 1st March 2017, while the contract is set to commence on 1st April 2017 and will run until 31st March 2021. This procurement offers a significant opportunity for qualified providers in the healthcare sector, particularly those based in London.

This tender represents an excellent growth opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary or community sector organisations with relevant audiology expertise. The open nature of the procurement process allows a diverse range of businesses to participate, particularly those focused on health service delivery. As NHS Southwark CCG and NHS Lambeth CCG will award contracts to a variety of AQP bidders, firms that can demonstrate high-quality service and compliance with NHS standards are strongly encouraged to apply.

## Notice

Modification Notice Original description: NHS Southwark CCG and NHS Lambeth CCG are seeking suitably qualified providers of Audiology Services. This procurement will be via the Any Qualified Provider (AQP) process, and will be a joint procurement which involves NHS Southwark CCG and NHS Lambeth CCG as the Contracting Authorities embarking upon a joint AQP procurement exercise to advertise for, evaluate, select, and award contracts with a number of AQP bidders. The joint procurement working arrangements between the 2 Contracting Authorities are likely to cease once the contracts (if any) are awarded, and the appointed AQP providers will raise invoices to each Contracting Authority separately. Description of the modifications An additional supplier (Specsavers Hearcare Group Ltd) has been added to the Award Notice. Specsavers did not sign the contract at the same time as the other suppliers, so they could not be named in the earlier Contract Award Notice. Description of the circumstances which rendered the modification necessary and explanation of the unforeseen nature of these circumstances: An additional supplier (Specsavers Hearcare Group Ltd) has been added to the Award Notice. Specsavers did not sign the contract at the same time as the other suppliers, so they could not be named in the earlier Contract Award Notice.
