## Summary

The Oxfordshire County Council is currently seeking applications for its Dynamic Approved Provider List (DAPL) for Primary Care Services, set to reopen in April 2022. This tender process is classified under health services within the public procurement category of services, and will be accepting submissions electronically until 31 March 2026. The procurement method follows an open procedure, allowing various providers to apply for multiple service lots, which include the NHS Health Check Programme, Long Acting Reversible Contraception (LARC), and Drug Misuse Shared Care Services, with a contract period lasting 1440 days.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for healthcare providers, particularly those specialising in preventative care, reproductive health, and addiction services. Businesses that can effectively deliver these services in a community setting and possess expertise in health promotion, risk management, and patient support will find the potential to expand their operations. The involvement in this DAPL not only allows providers to secure a place for future call-off contracts but also positions them to significantly contribute to public health initiatives in Oxfordshire.
