This contract pertains to the Optometry Local Enhanced Services for 2026/27 in Rotherham. Classified under the industry category of optician services, it falls within the broader healthcare services sector. The contract, which operates from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2027, was awarded following a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition. Located in the Rotherham area, the contract aims to enhance General Ophthalmic Services (GOS) and is contingent on the existing provider’s capacity to manage interdependent services effectively. This tender represents a significant opportunity for organisations within the optometry and healthcare services sector. The contract requires providers to hold a General Ophthalmic Services (GOS) contract, suggesting that businesses with a strong track record in delivering integrated healthcare services will be best suited. The selection process underscores the importance of strong operational interdependencies, making it ideal for well-established optometric groups seeking to expand their service offerings. The award highlights the potential for increased activity-based revenues, making it an attractive opportunity for businesses looking to enhance their profile within the healthcare services industry, particularly in the Rotherham area. ## Notice The provider is commissioned to deliver locally enhanced services for the Rotherham population. ### Lot Information Lot 1 These contracts are awarded to an existing group of providers. Although we would not restrict the number of providers who deliver these LCS services provided they meet the contract and specification criteria, the primary reason that these services can only be delivered by this group of providers (Optometrists) is because they are required to hold a General Ophthalmic Services (GOS) contract and deliver the LCS alongside these services; the LCS is designed to enhance the (GOS) contract and not stand alone, therefore, interdependency between the two services is paramount. For this reason not every Optometrist delivers every LCS. The contract has been awarded following the direst award process B. The value of the contract is unknown as it is based on patient activity.. The contract will run from 01/04/2026 to 31/03/2027. This is an existing contract with an existing provider. Additional information: The contract value is unknown. The provider is paid in line with the relevant unit prices for the activity delivered in accordance with the nationally mandated NHS Payment Scheme. ### Procurement Information This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) confirmation of contract award. The contract has been awarded under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt , the provisions of the Public Contract Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/066199-2026 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Limited | | Procurement method details | Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 14 Jul 2026 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 2 Jul 2026 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £1 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Cancelled | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NHS SOUTH YORKSHIRE INTEGRATED CARE BOARD | | Locality | SHEFFIELD | | Post town | Sheffield | | Postcode | S1 3FG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE3 South Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE32 Sheffield | | Local authority | Sheffield | | Electoral ward | City | | Westminster constituency | Sheffield Central | | Delivery location | TLE3 South Yorkshire | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | BOOTS OPTICIANS PROFESSIONAL SERVICES | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85160000 - Optician services ## Release History - 14 Jul 2026 at 12:46 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/066199-2026 ## Notice URLs - http://www.boots-uk.com - https://www.england.nhs.uk - https://www.southyorkshire.icb.nhs.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
