## Summary

The NHS Lancashire and South Cumbria Integrated Care Board (ICB) has initiated a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intention to award notice for the Minor Oral Surgery Services contract, focusing on the dental practice and related services industry. This procurement process covers services across Lancashire and South Cumbria, aligning with the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The procurement, executed through a limited award procedure without prior publication, sees multiple providers being selected for the same service under direct award route C. The recommendation was made by the ICB commissioning leads and endorsed by the Primary Care Contracting Sub Committee on 13th November 2025, with the final decision on 25th November 2025. The standstill period for provider representations ends on 28th January 2026, with contracts intended to commence on 1st September 2026 and run until 31st August 2028.

This award notice opens avenues for business growth primarily for existing providers capable of delivering specialised oral surgery and dental services. With a focus on intersectional criteria such as quality, innovation, and social value, businesses with a proven infrastructure in providing NHS dental services, especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs), are well-suited for engagement. Participating businesses such as Aesthetics Dental Solutions Ltd and Synergy Dental Clinic Blackburn Ltd highlight existing dental service providers' opportunities to sustain and enhance service delivery while addressing regional healthcare needs. The procurement stresses value delivery without substantial service change, presenting viable opportunities for SME growth in addressing local health inequalities and increasing service accessibility.
