## Summary

The NHS Arden and Greater East Midlands Commissioning Support Unit is initiating a procurement process for "Additional Primary Community Care Services to Selected GP Practices within Nottingham City." This tender falls within the health services category (CPV code 85100000) and is currently at the planning stage. The contract is set to commence on 1st April 2017 and will last for three years, concluding on 31st March 2020. Key dates to note include a future notice date of 15th January 2017 for the full tender advertisement, and the estimated budget for this project is £420,000, covering a range of specified community services across several GP practices in Nottingham City.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those which can provide community-based care solutions, such as adult phlebotomy, treatment room services, and various diagnostic tests. SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly encouraged to engage, as the nature of the services required suggests that smaller, agile organisations may be well-suited to deliver tailored, localised care. Interested parties should prepare to submit proposals aligned with the full tender requirements anticipated to be published in January 2017.
