## Summary

NHS North Central London Integrated Care Board, located in London, UK, has awarded a contract for Community Ophthalmology services, under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) in accordance with Health Care Services Regulations 2023. The procurement process executed was a direct award without prior publication due to its nature falling outside standard public procurement regulations. The tender included ophthalmologist services, aiming to provide quality ophthalmic services that deliver timely advice, assessment, diagnosis, and treatment. The contract, awarded to Optegra UK Limited, will commence on 1 April 2026 and conclude on 31 March 2027, with a lifetime value of £2,714,000 and no option for extension. The procurement took place in Enfield, offering a vital linkage to healthcare's main service category.

This tender provides significant business growth opportunities for ophthalmology service providers who are interested in securing contracts within the healthcare sector in London. Businesses that demonstrate expertise in innovation, integration, collaboration, and service sustainability, while effectively addressing health inequalities and facilitating choice, are well-suited to compete for opportunities like this. The focus on social value and quality underpins the chances for capable suppliers to align their services with the health authority's strategic goals. Given the scale and funding involved, large enterprises with a proven track record and capability in delivering high-quality ophthalmic services stand to benefit greatly. The limited procurement method, specifically bypassing standard competition calls, highlights the tender's focus on continuity and expertise, setting clear expectations for providers aiming to meet high standards in service delivery. Optegra UK Limited, the existing provider, showcases the efficacy of maintaining performance metrics conducive to contract retention under these specialised regimes.
