## Summary

The procurement process, managed by the NHS Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, and Berkshire West Integrated Care Board (NHS BOB ICB) in collaboration with Frimley Integrated Care Board (ICB), has resulted in the awarding of a contract for community termination of pregnancy services. The contract, awarded to the British Pregnancy Advisory Service (BPAS), falls under the Health Services category, specifically through the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. Managed by the NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit, the procurement followed a direct award process under the Provider Selection Regime. The initial contract term began on 1st December 2025, with an optional extension of up to 24 months. The procurement is located in the UKJ region, with significant operations planned in Amersham and Leamington Spa. The process has now reached the award stage, with the contract already signed as of 1st December 2025.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those offering professional, personalised services in the termination of pregnancy sector. Companies capable of delivering safe, swift, and high-quality healthcare solutions might benefit greatly, particularly those seeking to establish or expand their services within the UKJ region. The procurement method bypassed the typical competitive bidding process, indicating a targeted selection approach that could be pivotal for businesses adept in forming strategic partnerships with healthcare boards. This creates a strategic business environment favourable for established health service providers looking to expand their clientele within the public healthcare framework.
