## Summary

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, is the buying organisation responsible for the procurement of general-practitioner services under the title "Single Point of Access (SPOA) for Central Vale Cardiff." This procurement falls under the services category and is regulated by the Health Services (Provider Selection Regime) (Wales) Regulations 2025, which exempts it from the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The procurement stage is currently at the award update phase, with the contract set to serve the Central Vale Cluster in Cardiff, UK. The award process commenced on 30th May 2025, with services set to begin on 1st June 2025, continuing until 31st May 2026, with the possibility of a 24-month extension. The estimated total value of the contract is £126,000 (VAT exempt), and the awarded supplier is Mind in the Vale of Glamorgan.

This tender represents a valuable opportunity for businesses involved in healthcare service delivery and coordination, particularly those with experience in managing referrals and working within community service networks. With the focus on providing a single point of access for patients requiring socio-economic and wellbeing support, businesses offering robust referral systems and strong local partnerships are well-positioned for involvement. SMEs, especially those with a specialised team and information governance systems, may find opportunities to expand their influence and service network within the public health sector in the Vale of Glamorgan. The influence of this contract on continuity of care and potentially reducing disruptions in service delivery provides a strategic opportunity for growth in public sector health service provision.

## Notice

The Central Vale Cluster is looking to continue work with Mind in the Vale, who can provide practices within the area, with a small team of dedicated staff who will be able to accept and manage referrals from the 6 practices as part of a 'single point of coordination and access' model. These referrals will be for patients who require onward referral onto existing, locally provided community services to meet their socio-economic and wellbeing needs as opposed to primary health needs. It is envisaged that this level of funding should be sufficient to employ a minimum of 2 staff to provide the 'single access point'. These staff will need to be accommodated either within a designated practice. The cluster requires the 'single point of access' to operate Monday-Friday (exclusive of bank holidays).
