## Summary

The North Yorkshire Council has completed the procurement process for "Primary Care - Pharmacy Services," within the healthcare industry, specifically focused on pharmacy services. This involves various health-related services such as needle exchange, opiate substitute supervised consumption, sexual health services, and a nicotine replacement therapy voucher scheme. The procurement falls under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) Regulations 2023 and is not governed by the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, allowing for a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. Contracts have been awarded to multiple suppliers, including Oasis Pharmaceuticals Ltd, PATELEY BRIDGE HEALTH CARE LIMITED, and Shifa Pharmacy Ltd, with contracts signed on differing dates including 16th November and 2nd December 2025.

This procurement presents valuable opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), especially those specialising in pharmacy and healthcare services. With awards tailored to both existing and new providers, it encourages innovation and diversification among businesses offering vital community health services. The focus on quality and patient choice rather than price in the award criteria opens pathways for businesses dedicated to improving health outcomes through specialised care services. Companies equipped to provide these services will have the chance to expand within the North Yorkshire and wider UKE region, fostering growth through contribution to essential healthcare services.
