## Summary

NHS West and North London Integrated Care Board is buying primary care community dental services for children and adults who need special care. Patients access the service by referral. The work is community-based dental practice care, delivered across six named sites: Alexandra Avenue Health and Social Services in South Harrow; Wembley Centre for Health & Care; Willesden Centre for Health and Care; Mill Hill Clinic; Torrington Park Clinic; and Vale Drive Clinic in Barnet. The requirement combines paediatric and adult special care dentistry rather than general dental services for the wider population. Suppliers specialising in community dental provision for patients with additional care needs are the closest fit. The buyer is the Integrated Care Board serving West and North London.

The process used the Provider Selection Regime’s Direct Award Process C, without a prior competition. Whittington Health NHS Trust was selected; the process description calls this an intention to award, while the contract data records an active contract signed on 28 September 2026. The recorded contract value is £62,437,921. The stated term is five years from 1 April 2027, with a discretionary five-year extension; without extension it expires on 31 March 2032, and with extension on 31 March 2037. Assessment weightings were improving access, reducing health inequalities and facilitating choice (30%), quality and innovation (25%), value (20%), integration, collaboration and sustainability (15%), and social value (10%). Price was not assessed. The provider passed basic selection and exclusion checks and met the required standard against the five criteria.

For suppliers preparing for a comparable requirement from this buyer, the selected provider demonstrates the importance of delivering primary care community dentistry for both paediatric and adult special care patients, with access by referral and service coverage across multiple London clinics. A credible provider would need to show it can deliver safe, high-quality care for patients with special care needs and sustain a distributed community service. The buyer’s assessment put greatest emphasis on improving access, reducing health inequalities and facilitating choice, followed by quality and innovation; integration, collaboration, service sustainability and social value also formed part of the assessment. The successful provider passed the selection and exclusion checks and met the required standard across these criteria. The route used was a PSR Direct Award C, rather than an open competition.

PSR Direct Award C. The provider met the basic selection criteria in accordance with Regulation 19 of the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 by achieving a pass. The provider also passed the assessment of exclusions (Exclusion Grounds - Grounds for Mandatory Exclusion and Exclusion Grounds - Grounds for Discretionary Exclusion) in line with Regulation 20 of the PSR.
