## Summary

Bath and North East Somerset Council has awarded a contract under the Provider Selection Regime Direct Award Process for public health services delivered by community pharmacies in the region, specifically focusing on smoking cessation support and sexual and reproductive health services. The procurement process, classified under the health services industry category, is located in the Bath area (UKK12) and covers a period from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2029, with a potential two-year extension. The process followed a limited procurement method, which involved a direct award without prior publication of a call for competition, ensuring a streamlined approach tailored to existing service needs.

This contract presents opportunities for community pharmacies interested in expanding their service offerings in health and wellness within the Bath area. It caters to businesses capable of providing specialised health services, particularly in smoking cessation and sexual health. Given the process involved direct awarding, pharmacies with experience and a strong presence in the region, albeit new to directly providing these specific services outside previous commissioning arrangements, would find this contract particularly beneficial to leverage their existing infrastructure and expertise to support public health initiatives.
