The procurement process, managed by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit, is classified under the health services category and involves multiple lots to cover different geographical areas, including East Surrey, Guildford, and a county-wide sedation service. Providers interested in participating must submit their proposals by the 2nd of March, 2026, with the procurement set to span from 1st August 2026 for a planned duration of up to 56 months. The total value of this contract is estimated at £12,034,808, with the option for a two-year extension. This tender reflects the ongoing integration of NHS services within the Surrey region, anticipating a merger with the Sussex ICB in April 2026. This procurement presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in healthcare services, particularly those with capabilities in Level 2 Oral Surgery and sedation. The structured approach to evaluating tenders ensures that only the most capable providers proceed, potentially leading to increased market competitiveness and higher service standards. Businesses with expertise in managing complex dental cases or those equipped with the necessary accreditation for Level 2 services would be well-placed to bid. The phased evaluation process — dividing the tender into two evaluation stages — centres on establishing a high quality of service provision. Furthermore, with geographical expansions planned as part of the Surrey and Sussex ICB merger, there are prospects for business growth in expanding patient eligibility and service coverage. This contract not only aims to ease pressures on secondary care centres but also ensures cost-effective healthcare delivery in primary care settings within the region. ## Notice Background and Scope NHS Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care Board (ICB) is initiating a procurement process for the delivery of Intermediate Minor Oral Surgery (IMOS) services for the Surrey population. The scope of services includes all patients registered with GP practices within Surrey Heartlands, as well as individuals who are not registered with a GP practice but are resident within Surrey. The scope also incorporates patients currently registered with the eleven GP practices in Surrey Heath and Farnham that will transfer from NHS Frimley ICB to the new Surrey and Sussex ICB on 1 April 2026. While this procurement exercise is being launched by NHS Surrey Heartlands ICB, bidders should note that, following the planned merger of NHS Surrey Heartlands ICB and NHS Sussex ICB on 1 April 2026, the awarding authority for the resulting contracts will be the newly established NHS Surrey and Sussex ICB. The ICB also reserves the right, following the formation of NHS Surrey and Sussex ICB, to amend the scope of patient eligibility for IMOS services. This may include extending eligibility to all patients registered with GP practices located within either Surrey or Sussex, and/or individuals resident within the geographic boundaries of Surrey or Sussex. Any such amendments will be made in line with statutory obligations under the PSR and associated guidance, alongside the governance, commissioning policies, and assurance processes of the merged ICB. The procurement is divided into 4 lots across the Surrey Heartlands ICB areas and the incoming Surrey Heath and Farnham populations. Providers can bid for any number of Lots.
