## Summary

NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board commissioned a GP locally commissioned services contract for Upperthorpe Medical Centre. The requirement is a primary care service designed to enhance and operate alongside the existing GP Framework contract, rather than as a standalone service. Delivery is in Sheffield. The service falls within general-practitioner services and is part of the NHS health-services market. The selected provider, Upperthorpe Medical Centre, is based in Sheffield and is classified as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The arrangement concerns an existing service and an existing provider, with delivery dependent on the provider holding a contract through the GP Framework and meeting the local contract and specification requirements.

The procurement is complete and was awarded under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, using direct award process A without prior publication of a competition notice. The single lot is marked cancelled, while the award to Upperthorpe Medical Centre is active and the related contract is active. The award date is 1 April 2026, and the contract period runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027. The contract value is recorded as £1, although the overall value is activity-based and unknown, with payment at local prices. Evaluation was based entirely on quality, with no cost weighting. One bid was recorded.

This award shows demand for GP locally commissioned services integrated with an NHS GP Framework in Sheffield. A credible future competitor would need to be an established GP provider able to hold the relevant GP Framework contract and deliver the locally commissioned services alongside it. The requirement is therefore suited to practices or primary care organisations with operational capacity for ongoing patient-facing GP services, established local delivery arrangements and the ability to meet the buyer’s contract and service specification. Quality is the decisive consideration: providers should be able to demonstrate reliable clinical delivery, appropriate governance and service quality rather than compete primarily on price. The incumbent is an SME, indicating that this type of arrangement can be delivered by a suitably capable smaller provider.

## Notice

GP Locally Commissioned Services Contract.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

This contract Award has been made following direct award process A of the Provider Selection Regime.

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 (GP) is because they are required to hold a contract via the GP Framework and deliver the LCS alongside these services; the LCS is designed to enhance the GP Framework contract and not stand alone, therefore, interdependency between the two services is paramount.

The provider is paid on an activity basis based on local prices, therefore the overall contract value is unknown.

The contract will be from 01/04/2026 to 31/03/2027

This is an existing service with an existing provider.

### 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 Procurement Act Regulations 2023 do not apply.
