## Summary

The NHS Hounslow Clinical Commissioning Group has conducted a tender for the "Community Dermatology in Hounslow" project, classified under health services. This procurement is in the Award stage, having reached completion on 21 April 2021. The contract involves the provision of vital community dermatology services for both paediatric and adult populations, ensuring care continuity during the establishment of the North West London Clinical Commissioning Group, which occurred on 1 April 2021. The existing contract with the incumbent service provider, Omnes Healthcare Ltd, has been extended for a further six months, concluding on 30 September 2021, with a total contract value of £2,047,500 following this modification. The procurement method was limited, with an award procedure conducted without prior publication of a call for competition.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for healthcare service providers specialising in dermatology, particularly organisations equipped to deliver community-based health services. Companies that can provide multidisciplinary dermatological expertise, minor surgical procedures, and educational resources for both healthcare professionals and patients would be particularly well-suited to participate in future procurements as the NHS Hounslow CCG looks to enhance service delivery in response to evolving healthcare needs in the region.

## Notice

### Lot Information

Lot 1

Along with 7 other CCGs in the area, NHS Hounslow CCG is to be incorporated into a new CCG from 1st April 2021 - North West London Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG). A period of review is required from April 2021 to agree the future model of care and to identify the commissioning strategies for urgent care services across NW London for the coming year and beyond. The existing contract is therefore being modified to extend its duration for an interim period of 6 months in order to enable this review to take place. This modification is necessary to ensure continuity of these critical Community Dermatology services for local patients. The CCG has considered its obligations under the NHS (Procurement Patient Choice and Competition) (No.2) Regulations 2013 and assesses that the incumbent provider offers the safest solution to ensure this continuity at this time, particularly having regard to the priorities and resource pressures associated with the local NHS response to COVID-19. This contract modification is assessed to be proportionate and lawful under Regulation 72(1)(b) Additional information: This Notice confirms a modification to extend an incumbent provider's existing contract which has been in place for the last 3 years, for a further 6 months until 30 September 2021. This process will be achieved through variation procedure with the incumbent service provider. The existing contract has had an overall value of PS1.755m, with the additional 6 months increasing this by PS292,500
