## Summary

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, is currently seeking bids for General Dental Services Contracts. This procurement process is part of their efforts to address health inequalities and improve dental access within Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan, particularly in Llanishen, Penarth, and Penylan. The tender is classified under health services and is conducted via an open procurement method, with the deadline for submissions set for 14 June 2021. Interested bidders must submit their proposals electronically through the Bravo e-tenderwales portal.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for dental service providers, particularly those with experience in NHS General Dental Services. Businesses that specialise in dental practice and related services are encouraged to participate, especially those familiar with the requirements set forth in the National Health Service (General Dental Services Agreements) Regulations. The opportunity for consortia bidding may further enhance collaboration among smaller entities, allowing them to effectively address the needs of the local population while expanding their operational scope and capacity.

## Notice

Cardiff and Value University Health Board is working to address health inequalities and dental access issues within its boundaries. It is therefore seeking to commission high quality NHS General Dental Service (GDS) to be delivered within existing GDS contracts in primary care settings for patients residing within Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan. Specifically in the areas of Llanishen, Penarth and Penylan following the surrender of NHS dental contracts. Contract increases would be offered under the terms of The National Health Service (General Dental Services Agreements) (Wales) Regulations 2006.
