## Summary

The NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board has awarded a contract titled "NHS South Yorkshire ICB Optometry LCS Contract 2025-26" to O’Brien Fey Opticians in Rotherham. This contract falls under the industry category of optician services and was categorized as a service procurement. The process was completed through a Provider Selection Regime without prior publication due to its classification as being outside the typical procurement directive scope. The contract, valid from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026, aims to deliver locally enhanced services in Rotherham. This award notice is part of the Procurement Method of Limited procedure, and the contract's status is active, confirming the conclusion of the procurement stage as an award.

This tender presents opportunities for business growth, particularly for optometrists who hold a General Ophthalmic Services contract. The unique structure of this contract, which requires synergy between the locally enhanced services and existing General Ophthalmic Services, makes it particularly suitable for existing service providers in the region who can efficiently deliver specialized optometry services. It provides a stable business opportunity over a year, where service providers can be strategic partners in enhancing healthcare services delivery within the specified locality. Given the direct award method used, businesses within this niche are encouraged to align with the procurement and service criteria to avail similar opportunities in the future.

## Notice

The provider is commissioned to deliver locally enhanced services for the Rotherham population.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

These contracts are awarded to an existing group of providers. Although we would not restrict the number of providers who deliver these LCS services provided they meet the contract and specification criteria, the primary reason that these services can only be delivered by this group of providers (Optometrists) is because they are required to hold a General Ophthalmic Services (GOS) contract and deliver the LCS alongside these services; the LCS is designed to enhance the (GOS) contract and not stand alone, therefore, interdependency between the two services is paramount. For this reason not every Optometrist delivers every LCS.

The contract has been awarded following the direst award process B.

The value of the contract is unknown as it is based on patient activity..

The contract will run from 01/04/2025 to 31/03/2026.

This is an existing contract with an existing provider.

### Procurement Information

This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) confirmation of contract award notice. This contract has been awarded under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Procurement Act 2023 do not apply to this award.
